    Abstract

    ![CDATA[This paper presents the design of a dual-output reconfigurable buck-boost switched capacitor converter architecture that can be adapted for applications requiring multiple, distributed on-chip loads. This system uses adaptive gain control and discrete frequency scaling to regulate power delivered. Core-interleaving and an enhanced load regulation scheme have also been adopted to improve performance. The converter provides a fully-integrated, low-area and fully digital solution. Design and implementation using a standard bulk CMOS 0.18μm process provide simulation results showing that the converter has an output voltage range of 1.0-2.2V, can deliver up to 5mA in load current and is up to 67% efficient.]]
