Faster and more precise voltage booster with a low supply voltage using a A / D converter

2004 
System (340, 500) for generating a regulated boosted voltage (348, 532), comprising: to receive a multi-stage voltage boost circuit (347, 540) is formed, a supply voltage (343) and one or more output signals (345, 346, 525, 526) from a supply voltage detection circuit (342) to the boosted word line voltage (348, 532) to produce, which has a value greater than the supply voltage (343), wherein the voltage boost circuit (347, 540) comprises: a precharge circuit (522); a plurality of boost cells (514, 515) each having plurality of boost stages (1210, 1220, 1230) and a Stufenvorlade- (456a) switch (622) being connected to the boost cells and the pre-charge circuit having a common node (348, 425, 532); a timing control circuit (510) that is configured to initialize the precharge circuit (522) and the Stufenvorladeschalter and control to initially stages (1210, 1220, 1230) of the plurality of boost cells (514, 515) to the supply voltage (341) during charging a precharge (730) to the voltage step-up of the boost cells during a Vorhochsetzzeitdauer (747) and a ...
