ABSTRACT CHARGE PUMP SYSTEM FOR NON-VOLATILE RAM A voltage generating system provides a plurality or difference voltages for powering a dynamic nonvolatile random access memory (NVRAM) chip. The voltage generating system includes a pair of charge pumps. Each charge pump is coupled to a controller that senses the voltage level at the output of the charge pump and generates an enabling signal when said voltage is at a predetermined value. The signal activates a power down circuit which adjusts the charge pump output to a desired voltage level. A programmable oscillator provides the clocking signals for the controller. The charge pumps and programmable oscillators are periodically deactivated. As a result, the overall power consumption of the chip is reduced.
