ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus is provided for a voltage translator for performing a voltage-level translation of a signal. The voltage translator of the present invention includes a first transistor that is coupled to a control signal. The control signal is in a first voltage range. The voltage translator also includes a first one-shot circuit driven by the first transistor. The first one-shot circuit is capable of providing a pulse. The voltage translator also includes a second transistor capable of receiving a complementary signal of the control signal. A first pair and a second pair of transistors are included in the voltage translator. Each pair of transistors is operatively coupled to the first and second transistors. The first and second pairs of transistors are adapted to provide a transition of a signal from a first voltage range to a second voltage range.
