Abstract
A voltage detection circuit for a charge pump is disclosed. The voltage detection circuit includes a sampling circuit and a latch circuit. The sampling circuit is configured to sample a supply voltage and provide the latch circuit with a sampled voltage. The latch circuit is configured to detect the sampled voltage and latch a result of the detection. And the latch circuit is connected to a voltage regulation circuit which is configured to regulate a charge-pump cascade structure in the charge pump based on the result of the detection so as to maintain an output voltage of the charge pump stable.
