Abstract
A high voltage tolerant output circuit includes a boost circuit, a first bias circuit, and a buffer circuit. The boost circuit includes a first transistor and an output node. A first terminal of the first transistor is coupled with the output node. The first bias circuit is coupled with the output node and a control terminal of the first transistor, and for dividing the output voltage of the output node. The first bias circuit is further configured to transmit the divided output voltage to the control terminal of the first transistor. The buffer circuit is coupled with a second terminal of the first transistor, and for setting a first voltage of the second terminal of the first transistor. The output voltage is positive correlated to the first voltage, and a maximum value of the output voltage is higher than or equal to a maximum value of the first voltage.
