A voltage translating circuit is disclosed having a first field effect transistor of a first type coupled in series with a second field effect transistor of a second type between a first supply voltage node and an input node, with the respective current channel regions thereof coupled to the same node as the sources thereof, and the gates thereof coupled to another input node. A third field effect transistor of the second type is interposed between the first and second transistors with the current channel region thereof coupled to the same node as the source region of the second transistor and the gate thereof coupled to yet another input node. A fourth field effect transistor of the second type is connected in parallel with the second and third transistors between the output node, formed by the common drains of the first and third transistors, and the first of said input nodes, with the current channel region of the fourth transistor being coupled to the same node as the sources of the second and third transistors and the gate thereof coupled to a negative supply voltage node.
