摘要
We have developed a pump-hopping level-up converter and a differential-input. level-down converter that enable level conversion for I/O interfacing in sub-1-V LSIs. The level-up converter transforms signals of 0.61 V to 3.6 V within 5 ns with a 0.14-mu m CMOS technology. The differential input level down converter enables stable operation even at VDD of 0.5 V. These proposed level converters also provide the immunity against power-supply bouncing, which is essential For low-voltage and high-speed LSIs.
