I've heard everyone talking about using "bootstrap capacitors" to provide the higher voltage required by a mosfet (in my case i need 34V relative to ground to give me the 10V from gate to source), but for the life of me I cannot find a circuit or explanation (without using inductors) on the internet that charges this capacitor to a higher voltage than my supply voltage (24V or 12V already available, could use a voltage regulator if another voltage is needed).
The closest I came to was Charge pump: Information from Answers.com, except it doesn't use transistors - I tried to recreate the circuit with transistors but cannot seem to get it right. Can anyone help me out here?
