摘要： A variable charge pump contains several individual simple charge pumps, each with a pumping capacitor and a switching mechanism. Additionally, a switching network is coupled to the individual charge pumps so that the different lines in the charge pump can be connected together in a serial mode or parallel mode (or mixed serial and parallel modes) to match the needs of the output load. The switching network is easily changed to provide the necessary driving capability as the needs of the output load changes.

摘要： Described herein is a method for biasing an EEPROM array formed by memory cells arranged in rows and columns, each operatively coupled to a first switch and to a second switch and having a first current-conduction terminal selectively connectable to a bitline through the first switch and a control terminal selectively connectable to a gate-control line through the second switch, wherein associated to each row are a first wordline and a second wordline, connected to the control terminals of the first switches and, respectively, of the second switches operatively coupled to the memory cells of the same row. The method envisages selecting at least one memory cell for a given memory operation, biasing the first wordline and the second wordline of the row associated thereto, and in particular biasing the first and second wordlines with voltages different from one another and having values that are higher than an internal supply voltage and are a function of the given memory operation.

摘要： An oscillator is provided that includes at least one capacitor, at least one comparator, and at least one device for charging or discharging the at least one capacitor. The capacitor is coupled to the comparator. The comparator compares the voltage on the capacitor with a reference voltage, and activates the device so as to command the charging or the discharging of the capacitor. The oscillator also comprises a circuit for supplying a preset voltage to the comparator when the device commands the charging of the capacitor, so that the comparator compares the reference voltage diminished by the preset voltage with the voltage on the capacitor, or the voltage on the capacitor added to the preset voltage with the reference voltage.
