Abstract

Aspects of this disclosure relate to voltage generators, such as negative voltage generators. In an embodiment, an apparatus includes a voltage generator, a level shifter, and a semiconductor-on-insulator radio frequency (RF) switch configured to receive a signal from the level shifter. The voltage generator can include a charge pump configured to provide an output voltage, a comparator configured to generate an enable signal based on comparing an indication of a voltage level of the output voltage with a reference value, and an oscillator configured to activate based on the enable signal and to provide a clock signal to the charge pump. The level shifter can receive the output voltage from the charge pump and perform level shifting.
