Abstract

A voltage generator circuit provides an output voltage that is higher than an input voltage. The voltage generator circuit includes an input terminal receiving the input voltage, and an output terminal providing the output voltage. A pre-charge element is coupled between the input terminal and the output terminal, and a capacitance circuit is coupled to the input terminal and to the output terminal.
