Abstract

See full text

According to the present invention, a voltage level shifter with smaller size and less latch-up probability is described, in which extra two N-MOS transistors and two P-MOS transistors are added. The extra transistors help node voltages increase or decrease appropriately, and then the size of driving transistors can be small. As a result, the total size of the layout can be smaller. In addition, the voltage increasing or decreasing done by the extra transistors reduce a voltage bouncing which call cause latch-up.
