ABSTRACT:
A gate of an N-channel MOS transistor driving an output node is driven through a capacitance element in accordance with an input signal. A voltage on a source node of the drive transistor is applied as an output signal to an output node. Consequently, it is possible to perform level conversion of a voltage at a low level of the input signal having a higher voltage than the source node voltage of the drive transistor. It is thus possible to achieve a level converting circuit that can reduce the number of manufacturing steps, and can perform the level conversion of any logical level of the input signal.
