Abstract
A voltage balancing circuit and methods are disclosed for providing power from a single DC power supply to a circuit, such as an integrated circuit, that presents both a positive load and a negative load to the power supply, while ensuring that the positive load voltage and the negative load voltage remains substantially equal in magnitude, notwithstanding variations in the magnitudes of the loads. A voltage divider circuit provides a reference voltage equal to one-half of the total power supply voltage. Capacitors are provided across each of the positive and negative loads.
