<p>An apparatus (100) for supplying power to a bursty or highly dynamic load (108). The apparatus (100) includes a first circuit (106) for supplying charge to the load (108) at a first voltage, and a second circuit (104) for replenishing the charge depleted from the first circuit (106), wherein the second circuit (104) is charged at a second voltage greater than the first voltage in order to achieve a defined rate of charge replenishment. The apparatus (100) may include a feedback network for controlling the voltage applied to the load in response to process and temperature variations. The feedback network may regulate the charge capacity of the second circuit, the resistance between the first and second circuits, the duration of the charge replenishment, or the second voltage in which the second circuit (104) is charged.</p> |
