Abstract

A circuit arrangement may be provided including a level shifting stage configured to be coupled to a first reference voltage and a second reference voltage. The circuit arrangement may also include a first input electrode in electrical connection with the level shifting stage for coupling a first input voltage and a second input electrode in electrical connection with the level shifting stage for coupling a second input voltage. The level shifting stage may be configured to generate an output voltage above a predetermined output level at the output node due to the first reference voltage when the first input voltage is in the first logic state and the second input voltage is in the second logic state. The circuit arrangement may also include a feedback circuit coupled to the output stage and the level shifting stage and a voltage stabilization circuit coupled to the level shifting stage.
