Abstract:
Methods and systems of controlling a switched capacitor converter are provided. Upon determining that a voltage across a flying capacitor is above a first threshold, a first current is drawn from a first terminal of the flying capacitor by a first current source, and a second current is provided to a second terminal of the flying capacitor by a second current source. Upon determining that the voltage across the flying capacitor is below a second threshold, the first current is provided to the first terminal of the flying capacitor by the first current source, and the second current is drawn from the second terminal of the flying capacitor by the second current source. Upon determining that the voltage across the flying capacitor is above the second threshold and below the first threshold from the reference voltage, the first and second current sources are turned OFF.

Claim (Index 23):
The pre-balancing circuit of  claim 22 , wherein the first comparator circuit is further configured to:\n control the first and second current sources such that, responsive to the voltage across the flying capacitor being below a second threshold voltage, the first current source provides the first current to the first terminal of the flying capacitor, and the second current source draws the second current from the second terminal of the flying capacitor; and turn off the first and second current sources upon determining that the voltage across the flying capacitor is above the second threshold voltage and below the first threshold voltage.
