  • Abstract
    In a 0.13 mum design environment, we design two level converters to convert signals from 0.6V and 0.8V to 1.2V, respectively, to fulfill the needs of a multi-island dual-VDD CMOS SOC. Heuristic sizing guidelines are proposed to achieve better conversion speed and lower conversion energy for both level converters
