Regulator having interleaved latches

A charge pump system (100) includes a charge pump (102), and a regulator (101) that includes a clock generator (120) for providing a clock signal, a control logic (130) coupled to the clock generator, and a comparator (140) coupled to an output of the charge pump. The comparator includes a plurality...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A charge pump system (100) includes a charge pump (102), and a regulator (101) that includes a clock generator (120) for providing a clock signal, a control logic (130) coupled to the clock generator, and a comparator (140) coupled to an output of the charge pump. The comparator includes a plurality of interleaved latches (211, 212, 213 and 214) driven by a single differential (203) stage that compares the output voltage and a reference voltage. The control logic provides timing signals to cause each latch to perform a latch action at different points in time within each period of the clock signal, each point in time equally spaced apart. An output from each latch is coupled to an output stage (205). An output signal from the output stage regulates an output voltage from the charge pump. In one embodiment, the charge pump is coupled to a flash memory (190).
