Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are provided for driver circuits without voltage, level shifters. An example apparatus includes a semiconductor device including a row decoder circuit that includes a driver circuit and a switching circuit. The driver circuit is configured to receive an input signal having a first logical value, a first voltage signal, and a configurable power signal. The driver circuit is flintier configured to provide an output signal having the first logical value based on the first signal having the first logical value. A voltage level of the input signal is based on the first voltage signal and a voltage level the output signal is based on the configurable voltage signal. The switching circuit is configured to receive the first voltage signal and a second voltage signal and to provide the configurable voltage signal having a voltage. level of one of the first voltage signal or the second voltage signal.

Claim (Index 13):
The voltage shift driver circuity of the semiconductor chip of  claim 10 , wherein the voltage level shift circuit comprises:\n a first transistor coupled between a first node receiving the second voltage signal and a second node, wherein a gate of the first transistor is coupled to a third node; a second transistor coupled between the second node and a fourth node receiving the reference voltage signal, wherein a gate of the second transistor is configured to receive the control signal; a third transistor coupled between a fifth node receiving the second voltage signal and the third node, wherein a gate of the third transistor is coupled to the second node, wherein the level shift signal is provided from the third node; and a fourth transistor coupled between the third node and the fourth node, wherein a gate of the second transistor is configured to receive an inverted control signal.
