ABSTRACT:
A device for generating a voltage pulse in a low-voltage integrated circuit includes a capacitor and a control circuit. An input signal having negative pulses is received by the device. The input signal has a high level corresponding to a level of a logic supply voltage for the device, and a low level corresponding to zero volts. The control circuit includes a first and a second circuit element. The first circuit element transmits the low level of the input signal to a second terminal of the capacitor and also provides the capacitor a charging path. The second circuit element transmits the low level of the input signal to a first terminal of the capacitor with a predetermined delay so that a negative pulse between the high level and a negative level is provided at the second terminal of the capacitor in response to the input signal.
