ABSTRACT:
A voltage level converter having: an input bias terminal; connect to first, second and third voltage sources; first and second complementary output terminals; and an input control terminal wherein, said input bias terminal is connected to a third output terminal of an automatic bias stage, said bias stage having connections to said voltage sources for providing substantially said first low voltage to said third output terminal in the absence of said second high voltage and providing a third voltage that is greater than said first low voltage when said second high voltage is present, said third voltage being derived from said second high voltage.
