Abstract

A first inverter includes second and third transistors coupled at a third node. A second inverter includes fourth and fifth transistors coupled at a fourth node. A sixth transistor is between the fifth transistor's gate and the third node. A seventh transistor is between the third transistor's gate and the fourth node. An eighth transistor is between the third transistor's gate and the third node. A ninth transistor is between the fifth transistor's gate and the fourth node. A voltage of the eighth and ninth transistors' gates lowers at a first time. A state is formed with voltages applied to first and second nodes of the first and second inverters at a second time. A voltage of the sixth and seventh transistors' gates rises between the first and second times.
