Abstract
Voltage clamping and level shifting is provided. A first reverse direction high-electron-mobility transistor includes a source connected to an input pad, and a drain connected to a first reference voltage. A second reverse direction high-electron-mobility transistor includes a source and a gate connected to a second reference voltage, and a drain connected to the input pad. A gate of the first reverse direction high-electron-mobility transistor is connected to the second reference voltage. Level shifting is provided by an arrangement of three high-electron-mobility transistor and a resistive element
