A level shifting circuit has a high-level shifter connected to a first high voltage and to a first low voltage, for amplifying the peak voltage of an input signal; a low-level shifter connected to a second high voltage lower than the first high voltage and to a second low voltage lower than the first low voltage, for amplifying the trough voltage of the input signal; a high-voltage controlling transistor connected to the first high voltage and to an output node and turned on and off according to the output of the high-level shifter; and a low-voltage controlling transistor connected to the output node and to the second low voltage and turned on and off according to the output of the low-level shifter complementarily to the high-voltage controlling transistor. The level shifting circuit is capable of amplifying both the peak and trough voltages of an input signal.
