A reference output device includes a low side selector configured to select a first voltage level as an output signal. The output signal is a reference voltage. The reference output device also includes a high side selector configured to select a second voltage level as the output signal. The reference output device also includes a slew rate control configured to switch the output signal between the first voltage level and the second voltage level at a constant slew rate.

Slew rate control for multiple voltage domains

A voltage level translator includes an inverter circuit configured to switch an output of the inverter circuit between a first voltage level and a second voltage level. The voltage level translator also includes a capacitor connected to the output of the inverter circuit. The voltage level translator also includes a load connected to the capacitor. The capacitance of the capacitor is approximately 10 times larger than a capacitance of the load. An output signal of the voltage level translator has at least one of a different voltage swing and a different voltage domain than an input signal to the inverter circuit.
