Abstract

Various implementations described herein refer to an integrated circuit having level shifting circuitry and bypass switching circuitry. The level shifting circuitry is arranged for translating an input signal from a first voltage domain to an output signal for a second voltage domain. The bypass switching circuitry is arranged for activating and deactivating the level shifting circuitry based on a bypass control signal.
