Abstract
A fully static level translation circuit having a standby power close to zero. The level translation circuit for translating the voltage level of an input signal having a first voltage level to form an output signal having a second voltage level. The translation circuit comprises an input stage having logic to receive the input signal having the first voltage level and to create a first stage output signal, an output stage having logic to receive the first stage output signal and produce the output signal having the second voltage level, and a reset stage having logic to receive the first stage output signal and the output signal and to produce a reset stage output signal that is coupled to the output stage.
