Abstract:
A level shifting circuit includes a first level shifting unit including a plurality of signal transfer units; a first operation control unit inactivating some of signal transfer units of the first level shifting unit in response to a clamping signal; a second level shifting unit connected in parallel to the first level shifting unit and comprising a plurality of signal transfer units; a second operation control unit inactivating some of signal transfer units of the second level shifting unit in response to the clamping signal; a signal output unit connected to output ends of the first and second level shifting units; and a clamping unit fixing the output ends of the first and second level shifting units to a predetermined voltage level in response to the clamping signal.
