ABSTRACT:
A translator includes an initial circuit device configured to charge a translator output to a first voltage level in response to a change in an input signal. The translator further includes a sensing device configured to detect the output's potential approaching the first voltage level and smoothly shift charging functions over to a secondary circuit device, which will continue to charge the output up to a second voltage level.
