Abstract
A voltage boost circuit having a voltage output and a single input receives a DC voltage from an external source which is fed to an inductor. The input voltage is boosted to provide a constant voltage at the output at a level higher than the voltage input. A switch is coupled to the output of the inductor for controlling current through the inductor to induce a boosted voltage across the inductor.
