Abstract
A clocked driver circuit can include a master-slave level shifter latch and a driver. The master-slave level shifter latch can be configured to receive an input signal upon a first state of a clock signal, latch the input signal upon a second state of the clock signal and generate a level shifted output signal corresponding to the latched input signal. The driver can be configured to receive the level shifted output signal from the master-slave level shifter and drive the output signal on a line. The signal levels of the output signal can be greater than the signal level of the input signal.
