Abstract

A level shifter includes a first buffer circuit, a first capacitor, a second capacitor, a cross-coupled inverter, and a second buffer circuit. The first buffer circuit is configured to drive a first input signal and a second input signal with a first high power supply voltage and a first low power supply voltage to generate a first main driving signal and a second main driving signal. The first capacitor, the second capacitor, and the cross-coupled inverter are configured to generate signals of a first node and a second node based on the first and second main driving signals. The second buffer circuit is configured to drive the signals of the first and second nodes with a second high power supply voltage and a second low power supply voltage to generate a first output signal and a second output signal.
