(EN) APPARATUS,SYSTEMS, AND METHODS FOR RECONFIGURABLE DICKSON STAR SWITCHED CAPACITOR VOLTAGE REGULATOR
(FR) APPAREIL, SYSTÈMES ET PROCÉDÉS POUR RÉGULATEUR DE TENSION DE CONDENSATEUR COMMUTÉ EN ÉTOILE DICKSON RECONFIGURABLE

Abstract:

(EN)The present disclosure shows a reconfigurable Dickson Star SC regulator that can support multiple conversion ratios by reconfiguring between various modes. The reconfigurable Dickson Star SC regulator is designed to reduce the number of redundant capacitors by reusing capacitors and switches across multiple modes of operation (across multiple conversion ratios). The present disclosure also shows a hybrid (e.g., two-stage) voltage regulator.
(FR)La présente invention présente un régulateur de SC en étoile Dickson reconfigurable qui peut prendre en charge de multiples rapports de conversion en procédant à une reconfiguration entre différents modes. Le régulateur de SC en étoile Dickson reconfigurable est conçu pour réduire le nombre de condensateurs redondants en réutilisant des condensateurs et commute sur de multiples modes de fonctionnement (sur plusieurs rapports de conversion). La présente invention concerne également un régulateur de tension hybride (par exemple, à deux étages).
