Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A first circuit is coupled to a second circuit, which is coupled to a third circuit. A high voltage value of a first input signal and of a first output signal of the first circuit are equal, and are less than a high voltage value of a second output signal of the second circuit. A low voltage value of the first input signal is higher than a low voltage value of the first output signal. A high voltage value of the second output signal and of a third output signal of the third circuit are equal. The low voltage value of the first output signal, the second output signal, and the third output signal are equal.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A word line driver circuit comprising: a first circuit configured to receive a first input signal and to generate a first output signal, the first input signal swinging between a high voltage value and a low voltage value of the first input signal, the first output signal swinging between a high voltage value and a low voltage value of the first output signal; a second circuit coupled to the first circuit and configured to receive the first output signal a…
