Abstract

See full text

The present disclosure provides methods and circuits of multi-output hybrid voltage regulators that generate multiple lower level DC voltages lower than the magnitude of an input voltage provided to an input node of the regulator. The disclosed methods and circuits can be applied to today's Large conversion ratio DC-DC converters that allow them to support same power conversion functionality for multiple output voltages with one core switched capacitor network sharing passive components and switches with less voltage ratings, and therefore, reduce the implementation space to save cost as well as improve efficiency. Sample applications include, but are not limited to, PoL converters for data centers and telecommunication systems with better efficiency and compactness for higher conversion ratio.
