High voltage circuit for use in programming memory circuits (EEPROMs)

摘要

A high voltage circuit provides a high voltage signal output in response to receiving a logic signal. The high voltage circuit includes a regenerative circuit which is coupled to a high voltage terminal and a 5 volt power supply terminal. An inverting push-pull buffer responsive to the logic signal provides a signal which is regenerated to the high voltage by the regenerative circuit when the logic signal is in a first state and maintains the signal at ground potential when the logic signal is in a second logic state.
