ABSTRACT:
An output driver circuit includes first and second supply terminals, first and second complementary data terminals and an output terminal. A pull-up transistor is coupled between the first supply terminal and the output terminal and has a first control terminal. A pull-down transistor is coupled between the second supply terminal and the output terminal and has a second control terminal which is coupled to the second data terminal. A voltage level shifting circuit is coupled between the first complementary data terminal and the first control terminal and is biased between the first supply terminal and a voltage-controlled node. A voltage regulator is coupled to the voltage-controlled node for regulating the node at a selected voltage.
