A switched capacitor circuit, for use in voltage converters and the like, which includes a switched capacitor array, a plurality of MOS transistor switches and drive circuitry for controlling the state of the switches. The drive circuitry alternates between a first phase where at least one capacitor of the array is connected by the switches between an input node and an output node and a second phase where the capacitor is connected in series between one of the output and input nodes and a third node, such as a circuit common. Boost and buck gain configurations are achieved when connected to the output and input nodes, respectively. A voltage management feature is implemented to control voltages produced in the array so that no PN junction of the transistor switches formed by a body and the drain/source regions disposed in the body becomes forward biased.
