The first terminal of the second capacitor C2 is connected to the output terminal of the first inverter and the input terminal of the second inverter, and the second terminal of the second capacitor C2 is connected to the second output node Q2 and the input terminal of the third inverter.
[0045] In other embodiments, the first coupling unit may also be a third resistor or other circuit structure, and the second coupling unit may be a fourth resistor or other circuit structure.
[0046] In one embodiment, the first transistor M1, the third transistor M3, the seventh transistor M7, the ninth transistor M9, the eleventh transistor M11, and the thirteenth transistor M13 are P-channel MOSFETs, and the second transistor M2, the fourth transistor M4, the fifth transistor M5, the sixth transistor M6, the eighth transistor M8, the tenth transistor M10, the twelfth transistor M12, and the fourteenth transistor M14 are N-channel MOSFETs. In other embodiments, the first transistor M1, the third transistor M3, the seventh transistor M7, the ninth transistor M9, the eleventh transistor M11, and the thirteenth transistor M13 can be N-channel MOSFETs, and the second transistor M2, the fourth transistor M4, the fifth transistor M5, the sixth transistor M6, the eighth transistor M8, the tenth transistor M10, the twelfth transistor M12, and the fourteenth transistor M14 are P-channel MOSFETs.

[0049] like Figure 1 As shown, the first input terminal VIP and the second input terminal VIN receive the first input signal AVDDL and the second input signal AVSSL from the first voltage domain. In one embodiment, the first input signal AVDDL and the second input signal AVSSL are fixed signals and are inverted signals. That is, at the same time, only one of the first transistor M1 and the third transistor M3 is turned on. If the second input signal AVSSL is input from the control terminal of the first transistor M1, the first transistor M1 is turned on. The signal output from the second terminal of the first transistor M1 passes through the first resistor R1 and the second transistor M2 and is used as the input to the control terminal of the sixth transistor M6 and the output signal of the first output node Q1 as the control signal of the first inverter. The signal at the first terminal of the sixth transistor M6 is the fourth input signal AVSSH. When the sixth transistor M6 is turned on, the output signal generated at the second terminal of the sixth transistor M6 (i.e., the second output node Q2) serves as the control signal for the third inverter. The output signal of the third inverter serves as the control signal for the fourth inverter. Finally, the signal output from the output terminal VOUTP is either the third input signal AVDDH or the fourth input signal AVSSH. Similarly, the signal output from the output terminal VOUTN is either the third input signal AVDDH or the fourth input signal AVSSH. The signals output from the output terminals VOUTN and VOUTP are inverted signals. In one embodiment, the third input signal AVDDH and the fourth input signal AVSSH are floating signals. In other embodiments, the first input signal AVDDL and the second input signal AVSSL can also be floating signals, and the third input signal AVDDH and the fourth input signal AVSSH can also be fixed signals.
[0050] The first resistor R1 and the second resistor R2 are path current-limiting resistors for current limiting. The main function of the second transistor M2 and the fourth transistor M3 is to isolate the first voltage domain and the second voltage domain (for example, if there is a high voltage difference, the second transistor M2 and the fourth transistor M3 can play a role in resisting high voltage). The fifth transistor M5 and the sixth transistor M6 form a cross-coupled latch structure to ensure that the logic level is latched correctly. The first capacitor C1 is used for positive feedback of the two in-phase signals between the input of the first inverter and the output of the third inverter, so that the signal at the input of the first inverter can pass through the uncertain level stage faster, avoiding logic flipping errors and speeding up the flipping speed. The second capacitor C2 is used for positive feedback of the two in-phase signals between the input of the third inverter and the output of the first inverter, and the principle is the same as that of the first capacitor C1.
