ABSTRACT:
A gating means couples excitation signals to the input of an inverter which is connected between first and second power terminals. Positive feedback means is connected between the input and the output of the inverter. In response to an excitation signal, whose level is intermediate the levels of the operating voltages applied between the first and second power terminals, the inverter output is driven to the potential at one of the first and second power terminals while the potential at the other one of the first and second power terminals is applied to the inverter input. The gating means, conductive during transitions of the excitation signals from one level to another, does not conduct in the steady state condition, whereby a potential at the inverter input of higher amplitude than the excitation signals is not coupled back to the source of excitation signals.
