Abstract
A soft-start voltage circuit includes an operational amplifier, a first and a second capacitors, a first and a second switches, and a voltage level shifter. The operational amplifier includes a positive end, a negative end, and an output end coupled to the negative end of the operational amplifier for outputting the soft-start voltage. The voltage level shifter is coupled between the first capacitor and the positive end of the operational amplifier for shifting a level of the voltage on the first capacitor. The first switch is coupled between the first and the second capacitors for coupling the first and the second capacitors according to the clock. The second switch is coupled between the second capacitor and the negative end of the operational amplifier for coupling the second capacitor and the negative end of the operational amplifier according to the inverted clock.
