SIGNAL LEVEL CONVERTER

摘要

An electronic device with a supply voltage level converter converts a signal from a first low supply voltage level to a second high supply voltage level includes; a first pair of cross coupled MOS transistors compliant with the second supply voltage level, each having a source coupled to the second supply voltage level and providing complementary output signals at respective drains; driven by a second pair of common gate MOS transistors compliant with the second supply voltage; driven by a third pair of common gate MOS transistors compliant with the first voltage level; and driven by first and second inverters coupled in a chain and supplied by the first supply voltage level, each having an output connected to the source of a transistor in a third pair.
