Abstract :
A breakthrough in the complementary thin-film transistor technology allows the production of voltage level shifters that raise a 5-V input span to an 80-V output span. The static and dynamic behavior of these level shifters is discussed. The present technology is applicable for the integration of driver circuits on the substrate of electroluminescent displays.
