Bidirectional Level shifter
Today technology trends are driven by higher integration and more features within a smaller chip area. This is achieved thanks to smaller process nodes used to make the single transistor. We got from the few micrometers (10μm) of early chip developments in the 1970s down to the few nanometers of today’s processors and FPGAs (smaller than 14nm). Smaller size, reduces the voltage gate thresholds and operative voltage of the MOS transistors, providing benefits to the IC power dissipation and higher operating frequencies...
