초록

A switched-capacitor(SC) type DC-DC converter having capability of integrated circuit fabrication have been marked for the application of mobile equipments. Especially, a ring type SC power supply is featured by the flexible and dynamic voltage conversion ratio change. In this paper, an improvement of the gate driving techniques is proposed for high power efficiency and less area occupation on the chip. Furthermore, its power-saving operation in the stand-by state is proposed. The three-capacitors ring type power supply is really designed and discussed. As results, the simulation results shows the high efficiency of 92.1%, and the higher output put voltage of 10.5 V compared with conventional one of 8.6 V.
