Switched-capacitor power converters have recently attracted lots of attention in many applications with different output power levels including flash memories, wireless sensors, biomedical implants, portable electronics, etc. By using capacitor as the only energy storage element, switched-capacitor power converters can provide the same voltage conversions as switched-inductor counterparts but with much better power densities. Realizing high power density switched-capacitor power converters on a chip can further lower the cost of power conversions. This talk will present several on-chip switched-capacitor DC-DC converters in order to illustrate the design issues and considerations related to power-stage selection and implementation for power-loss and output-ripple reductions, as well as optimal regulation schemes under different load conditions.
