ABSTRACT:
A composite circuit including a MOS transistor and a bipolar transistor to be driven by the MOS transistors and forming an output stage, a logical inverter circuit connected to an output terminal of the composite circuit to invert the level of the output signal, and a MOS transistor having a source and a drain thereof parallelly connected across a collector and an emitter of the bipolar transistor are provided. When the bipolar transistor conducts with a voltage drop associated with a base-emitter voltage, the parallelly connected MOS transistor renders the bipolar transistor completely conductive so that a level-shiftless output signal is produced.
