Abstract:
Circuits comprising: a first capacitor(C1); a first switch(S1) having a first side coupled to a VIN and a second side coupled to a first side of C1; a second switch(S2) having a first side coupled to the second side of S1; a third switch(S3) having a first side coupled to a second side of S2 and a second side coupled to a second side of C1; a fourth switch(S4) having a first side coupled to a second side of S3 and a second side coupled to a V SUPPLY , wherein: in a first state, S1 and S3 are off, and S2 and S4 are on; in a second state, S1 and S3 are on, and S2 and S4 are off; and at least one of a control of S1, a control of S2, a control of S3, and a control of S4 is coupled to a time-varying-slew-rate signal.

Claim (Index 1):
A circuit for a switched capacitor regulator, comprising:\n a first capacitor having a first side and a second side; a first switch having a first side coupled to an input voltage, a second side coupled to the first side of the first capacitor, and a control; a second switch having a first side coupled to the second side of the first switch, a second side, and a control; a third switch having a first side coupled to the second side of the second switch, a second side coupled to the second side of the first capacitor, and a control; a fourth switch having a first side coupled to the second side of the third switch, a second side coupled to a supply voltage, and a control, wherein in a first state: the first switch is off; the second switch is on, the third switch is off, and the fourth switch is on, wherein in a second state: the first switch is on, the second switch is off, the third switch is on, and the fourth switch is off, wherein at least one of the control of the first switch, the control of the second switch, the control of the third switch, and the control of the fourth switch is coupled to a control signal that is controlled to repeatedly transition between a low state a high state with a constant predetermined frequency, and wherein the control signal is controlled to have a slew rate during each transition between the low state to the high state that causes a switch corresponding to the at least one control to have an on-state resistance determined by the slew rate that regulates a voltage at the second side of the second switch while switching between the low state and the high state at the constant predetermined frequency.
