Abstract
A level converter includes a first to fourth transistors formed of a semiconductor having a same conductivity type. The first transistor is connected between a first power supply and a second output terminal, the second transistor is connected between a second power supply and a first output terminal, the third transistor is connected between the first power supply and the first output terminal, the fourth transistor is connected between the second power supply and the second output terminal, the first and the second transistors are input with one of first differential signals and the third and the fourth transistors are input with another of the first differential signals.
