Abstract

A voltage dividing capacitor circuit includes first capacitor through third capacitor dividers and first through fourth load capacitors. The first capacitor divider includes a first flying capacitor and a plurality of first switches connected in series between a first voltage node and a ground node, and is connected to a second voltage node. The second capacitor divider is connected to the first voltage node, the second voltage node, and a first intermediate voltage node. The third capacitor divider is connected to the second voltage node, the ground voltage node, and a second intermediate voltage node. The first through fourth load capacitors are connected in series between the first voltage node and the ground node. The second capacitor divider includes a second flying capacitor and a plurality of second switches connected in series between the first voltage node and the second voltage node.
