ABSTRACT:
A voltage level conversion circuit manufacturable in a standard semiconductor process is provided wherein an output voltage having a magnitude greater than the supply voltage and greater than the gate oxide breakdown voltage of the MOS devices is produced. A voltage level shifter circuit alternately charges a pair of capacitors which in turn alternately charges a second pair of capacitors. The second pair of capacitors is coupled to the output to produce the shifted output voltage having a frequency that is double the frequency of the input to the voltage level shifter circuit.
