ABSTRACT:
A booster circuit comprises a p-MOS transistor, two n-MOS transistors and a bootstrap capacitor. In the booster circuit, an output signal is charged up to a potential of a power supply through the n-MOS transistors, then is pushed up to a potential higher than that of the power supply by a bootstrap capacitor through the p-MOS transistors. In such a structure, the p-MOS transistor operates as a switching element when pushing up the output signal, so that operation speed is much higher than a conventional booster circuit in which n-MOS transistors are used as switching elements.
