POWER CONVERSION
[0055] The operation and advantages of dynamic control of a charge pump in accordance with the principles of the invention is best understood by considering alternative power conversion techniques in existing power converters.
[0056] For example, a linear regulator is one type of existing power converter. Linear regulators have an efficiency that is directly proportional to the ratio of the input voltage V.sub.S to the output voltage V.sub.OUT. Thus, an input voltage V.sub.S that is twice the required output voltage V.sub.OUT would result in about half of the power from an energy source 12 being inefficiently consumed by the power converter 20. Due to the lower efficiency and resulting heat generation, linear regulators require a heat sink that often complicates or precludes integration into low profile packages such as those complying with the PCMCIA specification standard. Moreover, linear regulators generally require two discrete capacitors, further limiting reduct...
