A gate enhanced tri-channel positive charge pump. The positive charge pump of one embodiment comprises a switching device to transfer charge from its input terminal to its output terminal, the switching terminal further comprising a substrate terminal coupled to the input terminal. A pull-up device is coupled to the switching device, the pull-up device to precharge a boot node, the pull-up device further comprising a substrate terminal couple to the input terminal of the switching device. A pull-down device is coupled to the switching device, the pull-down device to discharge the boot node, the pull-down device further comprising a substrate terminal coupled to the input terminal of the switching device. The pump also comprises a control device coupled to the pull-down device, the control device to enable and disable the pull-down device, the control device further comprising a substrate terminal coupled to a drain terminal of the control device.
