Abstract

See full text

A CMOS voltage level shifter that is comprised of a pull-up device coupled between a first voltage supply and an node to pull up that node to the voltage of the first voltage supply. The pull-up device is responsive to a first voltage signal. A pull-down device is also included that is coupled between the node and a reference voltage supply to pull down that node to a voltage of the reference voltage. The pull-down device is responsive to second and third voltage signals. A feedback circuit is included that provides the second voltage signal to the pull-down device. A level shifted output voltage signal is provided at the node.
