ABSTRACT:
A buffer circuit for generating full-swing output is disclosed. The circuit includes a pull-up circuit for transferring a supply voltage to an output line in response to a first state of an input signal. A pull-down circuit is used to pull the output line down to a ground in response to a second state of the input signal. A control circuit is used to activate only one of the pull-up circuit and the pull-down circuit respectively in response to the first state and the second state of the input signal. Further, a charge-pump circuit responsive to the input signal and a clock signal is used to generate a charge-pump voltage to an input of the pull-up circuit so that the supply voltage is transferred to the output line.
