Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
This invention discloses a voltage generator circuit having a voltage regulator and a voltage generator for supplying voltage to a load. The voltage regulator is powered by a power source which supplies a first voltage level and the voltage regulator provides a regulated output at a second voltage level lower than the first voltage level. The voltage generator receives power from the regulated output and provides a multiplied output having a third voltage level. Therefore any level of voltage between the first voltage level and the third voltage level is available to the load circuit. Since the voltage regulator supplies the voltage generator with power at a regulated level, the voltage …

Why it's free to use
- Filed April 17, 1990 and granted January 9, 1996. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended April 17, 2010.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by April 17, 2012.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
