摘要:
Method and apparatus for voltage level shifters (VLS) design in bulk CMOS technology. A multi-voltage circuit or VLS that operate with different voltage levels and that provides area and power savings for multi-bit implementation of level shifter design. A two-bit VLS to shift bits from a first voltage level logic to a second voltage level logic. The VLS formed with a first N-well in a substrate. The VLS formed with a second N-well in the substrate, adjacent to a side of the first N-well. The VLS formed with a third N-well in the substrate, adjacent to a side of the first N-well and opposite the second N-well. A first one-bit VLS circuit having a portion formed on the first N-well and a portion formed on the second N-well. A second bit VLS circuit having a portion formed on the first N-well and a portion formed on the third N-well.
