A reconfigurable charge pump is disclosed. A gated pumped output diode is coupled between the outputs of an intermediate pump stage and a final pump stage of the reconfigurable charge pump. When a control signal is in a first state, the gated pumped output diode is placed in a non-conducting state to prevent back conduction of current from the output of the final pump stage to the intermediate pump stage. When the control signal is in a second state, the gated pumped output diode is placed in a transparent state to conduct current from the output of the intermediate pump stage to an output of the reconfigurable charge pump.
