Abstract
In an embodiment a power converter includes a first capacitor and a second capacitor coupled in series with the first capacitor, wherein the converter is configured to charge, during a first phase, the first and second capacitors by a supply voltage so that a voltage across terminals of each of the first and second capacitors is substantially equal to half the supply voltage and discharge, during a second phase, the second capacitor to a third capacitor.
