Abstract

The invention discloses a level restorer used in a transmission pipe selector and relates to the integrated circuit technology. When the selector is formed by a one grade or N grade NMOS transmission pipe, the level restorer is formed by one NMOS pipe and one PMOS pipe. A drain electrode of the PMOS pipe is connected to an output terminal of the selector and a source electrode is connected to a power supply terminal vdd. The drain electrode of the NMOS pipe is connected with a grid electrode of the PMOS pipe. The source electrode is connected to a power supply terminal gnd and the grid electrode is connected to the output terminal of the selector. A circuit in the invention ensures that the output terminal of the selector is not a floating level when the selector does not work and the level is drawn to a high level through a PMOS upward pulling pipe of the level restorer so as to avoid generation of a static state short circuit current of a gate circuit connected to the output terminal. When the selector works and when an output signal of the transmission pipe selector generates decrease of a threshold, the level restorer is ensured to carry out rapid upward pulling and the generation of the static state short circuit current is avoided. Circuit area cost of the invention is small. The static state short circuit current is eliminated and simultaneously circuit performance is increased.
