Abstract
A circuit for shifting a level between two bi-directional signals having different voltage levels. The circuit includes a first analog switch including a first switching control terminal connected to first directional signal stage, a first input terminal connected to a first level of operating voltage, and a first output terminal connected to a second directional signal stage, for performing a switching operation for the first input terminal and the first output terminal based on a state of logic level of a signal from the second directional signal stage. The circuit also includes a second analog switch including a second switching control terminal connected to the first directional signal stage, a second input terminal connected to a second level of operating voltage, and a second output terminal connected to the first directional signal stage for performing a switching operation for the second input terminal and the second output terminal based on a state of a logic level of a signal from the first directional signal stage.
