Abstract
This paper presents a reconfigurable buck-boost Charge Pump (CP) based on the cross-coupled topology. The proposed CP is a switched capacitor (SC) converter merging different ratios and operation modes in one topology. The converter is able to step-up or step-down the input voltage at the output only by controlling the external connections of the circuit. By achieving various conversion ratios and operation modes, higher efficiency levels are performed maximizing the power that is delivered to the load. The reconfigurable buck-boost CP has been designed in 65 nm TSMC CMOS technology and covers an input voltage range from 1.6 V to 3.2 V and an output voltage range also from 1.6 V to 3.2 V in the boost mode and an input voltage range from 2.6 V to 3.6 V and an output voltage range from 1.4 to 1.8 V in the buck mode. In addition, efficiency estimation analysis is presented and proves how parasitic capacitances of flying capacitors affect the overall efficiency of a multi-ratio converter. The converter indicates peak efficiency equal to 77 % and delivers up to 4 mA load current.

AEÜ is an international scientific journal which publishes both original works and invited tutorials. The journal''s scope covers all aspects of theory and design of circuits, systems and devices for electronics, signal processing, and communication, including:
signal and system theory, digital signal processing
network theory and circuit design
information theory, communication theory and techniques, modulation, source and channel coding
switching theory and techniques, communication protocols
optical communications
microwave theory and techniques, radar, sonar
antennas, wave propagation
AEÜ publishes full papers and letters with very short turn around time but a high standard review process. Review cycles are typically finished within twelve weeks by application of modern electronic communication facilities.
