Abstract: A device and method for shifting voltage levels within a circuit are provided. An aspect of the disclosure provides a level shifting circuit for shifting a first logic domain to a second logic domain. In particular, the level shifting circuit can receive an input signal having a first logic domain with a first high voltage and a first low voltage. The level shifting circuit can receive inputs corresponding to a second high voltage and a second low voltage from the second logic domain. The level shifting circuit can concurrently switch the first high voltage and first low voltage at the input to the second high voltage and the second low voltage to produce a level-shifted version of the input signal at the output. The level shifting circuit can also have a plurality of guard transistors that prevent overvoltage of the circuit components.
