MUMBAI, India, April 10 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202441075431 A) filed by Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd., Gyeonggi, Republic of Korea, on Oct. 5, 2024, for 'circuits and methods for controlling efficiency of a charge-pump regulation system at low-load current.'

Inventor(s) include Piyush Agarwal; Mukul Agarwal; Marthanda Gnanendra Rao; and Subodh Prakash Taigor.

The application for the patent was published on April 10, under issue no. 15/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Circuits and methods for controlling efficiency of a charge-pump regulation system at low-load current The control circuit (300) comprises an oscillator (308) generating one or more clock pulse trains with variable clock periods, based on one or more load currents at the output end of the charge pump. The one or more clock pulse trains generated by the oscillator (308) are trimmed based on output from a time-to-voltage converter (302) and a comparator (304) providing information on low load current. Power consumption by a dynamic comparator is reduced at low load current, wherein the dynamic comparator is triggered by the one or more clock pulse trains having variable clock periods."
