Abstract

Design of fast floating high-voltage level-shifters based on cross-coupled latch pairs for high-side drivers in power converter applications is presented in this paper. A novel pre-charged circuit is proposed to reduce the voltage transition delay caused by parasitic components of the high-voltage DMOS transistors. Experimental results exhibit the designed level shifters with the capability of shifting input of 5V logic level to the maximum output voltage of 25 V and-25 V logic level using 0.25 mu m Bipolar-CMOS-DMOS(BCD) technology with the propagation delay of 6.4 nsec and 3.9 nsec, respectively, at cost of 26 pJ per transition.
