ABSTRACT:
A level shifter may reduce leakage current and provide firewall protection between circuits of different voltage domains when one voltage domain is in a standby mode. The level shifter may either couple or decouple input circuitry from a reference voltage in response to a firewall enable signal, may translate signal having a predetermined one of either a high or low state when the firewall enable signal is asserted.
