  • Publication number: 20130214838
    Abstract: A high speed level shifter is provided for converting a low input voltage into a wide-range high output voltage. By utilizing two switching units to improve the latching speed of the latching unit of the level shifter, the duty cycle of the input signal is nearly equal to the duty cycle of the output signal.

  • Publication number: 20130214749
    Abstract: A DC converter is provided for converting a first supply voltage into a second supply voltage. The first supply voltage is higher than the second supply voltage. The DC converter includes a driving stage and an output stage. The driving stage includes a modulation circuit, a pull-up driving unit, a pull-up unit, a pull-down driving unit, and a pull-down unit. The modulation circuit generates a control signal according to the second supply voltage. The pull-up driving unit generates a first P-type driving signal and a second P-type driving signal to the pull-up unit according to the control signal. The pull-down driving unit generates a first N-type driving signal and a second N-type driving signal to the pull-down unit according to the control signal.
