摘要: A level shifter having current boosting stages is provided. The level shifter includes a level shifting stage including a plurality of transistors and first and second nodes. The level shifting stage is configured to transfer a first signal of a first voltage domain to a second signal of a second voltage domain. A plurality of current boosting stages are associated with the transistors, respectively. A first current boosting stage provides a first boosting stage current path to support a first level shifter current path of a first transistor of the plurality of transistors in response to: a first supply voltage of the first voltage domain being greater than a second supply voltage of the second voltage domain, the first signal having a first logical state and the first node having a logical state reflecting that the first signal has a second logical state different from the first logical state.

摘要: An interface device includes a dynamic tracking bias circuit, an ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) clamp circuit, a pre-driver, a post-driver, and an I/O (Input/Output) pad. The dynamic tracking bias circuit provides a first supply voltage. The first supply voltage is determined according to a main power voltage and a second supply voltage. The ESD clamp circuit limits the second supply voltage. The post-driver is driven by the pre-driver. The I/O pad is driven by the post-driver. The pre-driver and the post-driver are supplied by the main power voltage, the first supply voltage, and the second supply voltage.

摘要: A level-shifter is provided with a first transistor and a second transistor. The first transistor functions to discharge an internal node responsive to an assertion of an inverted input signal to a first power supply voltage. A second transistor functions to discharge an inverted level-shifter output signal responsive to an assertion of an input signal to the first power supply voltage. An inverter inverts the inverted level-shifter output signal to form a level-shifter output signal that is asserted to a second power supply voltage responsive to the assertion of the input signal.

摘要: High temperature superconductor (HTS)-based interconnect systems comprising a cable including HTS-based interconnects are described. Each of the HTS-based interconnects includes a first portion extending from a first end towards an intermediate portion and a second portion extending from the intermediate portion to a second end. Each of the HTS-based interconnects includes a substrate layer formed in the first portion, in the intermediate portion, and in the second portion, a high temperature superconductor layer formed in at least a sub-portion of the first portion, in the intermediate portion, and in the second portion, and a metallic layer formed in the first portion and in at least a sub-portion of the intermediate portion. The HTS-based interconnect system includes a thermal load management system configured to maintain the intermediate portion of each of the HTS-based interconnects at a predetermined temperature in a range between a temperature of 60 kelvin and 92 kelvin.
