ABSTRACT:
A level converter for converting a TTL level of an input signal to a CMOS level comprises a NOR gate circuit (1), including a first voltage pull-up PMOS transistor (PI2), to which the TTL signal is inputted, an inverter (INV) connected to the NOR gate circuit, and a speed control circuit (2). The speed control circuit includes a second voltage pull-up PMOS transistor (PI4), and means are provided for connecting the first and second transistors in parallel between VCC and the input to the inverter. A fast conversion speed is obtained by turning on both PMOS transistors (PI2, PI4) when the TTL signal goes from the high level to the low level.
