Pump circuit with reset circuitry

摘要

A standby-mode booster circuit is activated in both a standby mode and an active mode and boosts up a power supply voltage to generate a booster voltage and output it from an output terminal. An active-mode booster circuit is activated in the active mode. In the active-mode booster circuit, an NMOS transistor is first turned on in response to a reset signal supplied from a reset signal generation circuit and then a connection node of capacitors is reset to the power supply voltage by the NMOS transistor. The boost operation is then started to output the booster voltage from the output terminal.
