Abstract
A charge pump includes first and second pairs of differential transistors. Each transistor includes control, first, and second terminals. First and second charge pump drivers communicate with the control terminal of one of the first pair of differential transistors and one of the second pair of differential transistors, respectively. Third and fourth charge pump drivers communicate with the control terminal of the other of the first pair of differential transistors and the other of the second pair of differential transistors, respectively. The first through fourth charge pump drivers include respective pairs of differential transistors that receive control signals from respective control circuits.
