Apparatus and method that provides active pull-up and logic translation from one signal mode to another signal mode

摘要

Described is an integrated circuit that causes an input signal having one signal mode with a high state, a low state and a transition state to be dynamically level shifted to another signal mode with a respective high and low state, while minimizing a duration of the transition state of the output signal, wherein the one signal mode and the another signal mode have respectively different high and low state levels.
