A configurable multi-output charge pump for power supply generation includes one or more flying capacitors (FCs) arranged to be switchably connected into a plurality of circuit configurations operative to provide respective output voltages at a common charging node. A configuration logic circuit is operative to generate one or more configuration setting control signals to effectuate a particular circuit configuration. One or more storage capacitors (SC) are independently and individually connectable to the common charging node depending on a selection control logic having a configurable duty cycle, wherein each SC is operative to supply a respective voltage output to drive a corresponding electrical load.
A charge pump, comprising:
