Abstract

A circuit includes a level shifter circuit, an output circuit, an enable circuit, a first and a second feedback circuit. The level shifter circuit is coupled to a first voltage supply, and is configured to generate at least a first and a second signal responsive to at least the first enable signal or the first input signal. The output circuit is coupled to at least the level shifter circuit and the first voltage supply, and configured to receive the first and the second signal. The enable circuit is configured to generate a second enable signal responsive to the first enable signal. The first feedback circuit is configured to receive the first enable signal, the second enable signal and the first feedback signal. The second feedback circuit is configured to receive the first enable signal, the second enable signal and the second feedback signal.
