Abstract
According to one embodiment, an apparatus is for use with a remote circuit. The apparatus has a first input for receiving an input voltage, a second input for receiving a power supply voltage, and a third input for receiving an input clock having a high state corresponding to the power supply voltage and a low state corresponding to a return for the power supply voltage. The apparatus includes a first shift circuit coupled to the first input and the third input, and configured to output a first output clock, the first output clock having a low state corresponding to the input voltage. The apparatus further includes a second shift circuit coupled to the first input and the first shift circuit, and configured to output a second output clock, the second output clock having a high state corresponding to the input voltage.
