Abstract

A level shifter for a power converter includes: a differential detector; a first transistor having a drain electrically connected to a first node of the differential detector, a gate, and a source; a second transistor having a drain electrically connected to a second node of the differential detector, a gate, and a source; and a circuit configured to simultaneously apply a same voltage to the source of the first and the second transistors based on a digital signal input to the level shifter. The circuit is also configured to apply a different gate voltage depending on the input digital signal, to choose which side of the level shifter will draw current to the differential detector. The differential detector is configured to translate the digital signal to a different voltage level based on a differential current between the first and the second transistors.
