ABSTRACT:
A level shift circuit including a first transistor circuit connected between a power supply line and a first node, a second transistor circuit connected between the power supply line and a second node, a first transistor connected between the ground line and the first node, and a second transistor connected between the ground line and the second node. A gate of the first transistor circuit is connected to the second node, and a gate of the second transistor circuit is connected to the first node. An input signal is supplied to a gate of the first transistor and an inverted value of the input signal is supplied to a gate of the second transistor. Additionally, control transistors switch a ratio of inflow current and emission current of the first node or the second node according to a control signal.
