    摘要: An output buffer circuit is provided. The output buffer circuit receives a control signal (OE) and a data signal (Dout) from a first core circuit (10) and operates in a transmitting mode according to the control signal. The output buffer circuit converts the data signal into an output signal at a first voltage level or a ground voltage level according to the data signal logic level and a supply voltage (VDDIO). The supply voltage is adjusted to pull up or pull down the first voltage level of the output signal.

    摘要: A mixed-voltage I/O buffer includes an input buffer circuit. The input buffer circuit includes a first inverter, a first voltage level limiting circuit, a first voltage level pull-up circuit, an input stage circuit, and a logic calibration circuit. The first inverter inverts an input signal to generate a first control signal. The first voltage level limiting circuit limits voltage level of an external signal to generate the input signal transmitted to the first inverter to prevent electrical overstress of the first inverter. The first voltage level pull-up circuit is controlled by the first control signal to pull up voltage level of the input signal inputted into the first inverter. The input stage circuit receives the first control signal to generate corresponding digital signals inputted into a core circuit. The logic calibration circuit calibrates voltage level of the first control signal when the first inverter mis-operates due to the input signal having a low voltage level.

The high voltage detecting circuit detects a power supply voltage and generates a first and a second determining signals and a first and a second bias voltages according to the power supply voltage. The dynamic gate bias generating circuit is biased by the first and the second bias voltages and receives the first and the second determining signals, for converting logic control signals into corresponding gate bias voltages according to the first and the second determining signals. The pad voltage detector detects a voltage of an I/O pad and provides a pad voltage detecting signal for the output stage circuit to modify an output signal outputted to an I/O pad.
