Abstract

In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, a method of operating a voltage generator includes providing a bypass switch to bypass a ripple filter coupled to a power converter. A coupling capacitor includes a first plate and a second plate. The first plate is coupled to a control node of the bypass switch. A bypass control signal is received. The control node of the bypass switch is toggled between a first voltage to a second voltage different from the first voltage by toggling the second plate of the coupling capacitor based on the bypass control signal.
