“…If the size of the ESD protection and output filter is not considered, the implementations in [9], [14], [20] are of similar area as the charge pump cores of this work, but only achieve step-up ratios of respectively 3.2, 19, and 13.1, while also having a significantly higher input power. In [9], where no input power or efficiency specification was available, it must be assumed that the input power is at least the same as the output power, which is up to 44 times higher than the input power in this work.…”
