Exemplary embodiments are directed to devices and method for operating a charge pump. A method may include activating a first switch coupled between a capacitor and a ground voltage over a first period of a charging phase. The first period may coincide with a non-overlapping time between the charging phase and an output phase. The method may also include activating a second switch coupled between the capacitor and an input voltage over a second period of the charging phase, wherein the first period begins prior to the second period. Further, the method may include deactivating the second switch over a third period of the charging phase and deactivating the first switch over a fourth period of the charging phase, wherein the third period begins prior to the fourth period. |
