Abstract

An apparatus comprising a control circuit and a logic circuit. The control circuit may be configured to receive an input signal and an indication signal and present a complement of the input signal. The logic circuit may be configured to receive the complementary input signal and generate an output signal. The output signal may provide full scale voltages between a first supply (e.g., VSS) and a second supply (e.g., VDD2).
