Abstract
This paper proposes charge pumps with improved power efficiency suitable for low-power on-chip applications. Undesired charge transfer, which has a direction opposite to that of the intended current flow, presents a significant source of power loss in charge pumps. The proposed charge pump circuit utilizes charge transfer switches with a complementary branch scheme to significantly reduce undesired charge transfer, thereby improving power efficiency and increasing output voltage effectively. An optimized gate control strategy is applied to further decrease the power loss caused by undesired charge transfer. Simulations of 8-stage charge pumps in a $0.13~\mu \text{m}$ standard CMOS technology show that for an input supply voltage of 1.2 V, the proposed charge pump circuit reaches a power efficiency of 58.72% with an output voltage of 7.45 V, when delivering 5-mA load current, and is able to maintain a power efficiency of around 50% and an output voltage of over 5 V as the load current increases to 10 mA. Compared with the other charge pump circuits, the simulation results demonstrate better performance of proposed charge pump circuits in terms of both voltage pumping gain and power efficiency.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
