A Low-Power Subthreshold to Above-Threshold Voltage Level Shifter
This paper presents a power-efficient voltage level-shifter architecture capable of converting extremely low levels of input voltages to higher levels. In order to avoid the static power dissipation, the proposed structure uses a current generator...
Energy-Efficient Wide-Range Voltage Level Shifters Reaching 4.2 fJ/Transition
This letter proposes a new level-shifting structure that can convert extremely low levels of input voltages to high output voltages while maintaining excellent delay and power dissipation. In order to reduce contention and ...
A High-Speed and Power-Efficient Voltage Level Shifter for Dual-Supply Applications
This brief presents a fast and power-efficient voltage level-shifting circuit capable of converting extremely low levels of input voltages into high output voltage levels. The efficiency of the proposed circuit is due to the fact that not only...
Reduction of Tripping Caused by Inrush Current in the Black-Start Units Using Reduced Voltage Level Start-up
In a widespread blackout, system
restoration must begin from pre-selected
generating units with the ability to start
themselves. Units, which participate in this
ancillary service, must have the ...
Modified Structures for Power-Efficient Level Translators
Reducing the supply voltage of a digital integrated
circuit decreases the power consumption and also the circuit
speed. One effective way for low-power design of digital
integrated circuits is to ...
A low-power wide-range voltage level shifter using a modified Wilson current mirror
In this paper, a low-power voltage level shifter is proposed which is able to convert sub-threshold voltage levels of input signal to above-threshold voltage levels. The proposed circuit is based on a modified Wilson current mirror structure which...
