Abstract
One example discloses an apparatus for charge recycling between a first power-domain operating at a first voltage and a second power-domain operating at a second voltage, including: a first power-delivery circuit configured to supply the first voltage to the first power-domain; and a second power-delivery circuit coupled to receive power from both the first power-delivery circuit and the first power-domain; wherein the second power-delivery circuit is configured to supply the second voltage to the second power-domain.
Claims13
An apparatus for charge recycling between a first power-domain operating at a first voltage and a second power-domain operating at a second voltage, comprising:
- a first power-delivery circuit configured to supply the first voltage to the first power-domain;
- a second power-delivery circuit coupled to receive power from both the first power-delivery circuit and the first power-domain;
- and
- a level shifter coupled between the first and second power-domains and configured to translate voltage levels between the first and second power-domains, wherein the first power-delivery circuit is connected to a first terminal of a power source, and wherein the second power-domain is connected to a second terminal of the power source,
- wherein the second power-delivery circuit is configured to supply the second voltage to the second power-domain.
