High Voltage Interfaces for CMOS/DMOS Technologies

This paper adapts low voltage integrated circuit (IC) design techniques to create integrated high voltage interfaces. Effective methods to implement high voltage interfaces to integrated CMOS/DMOS circuits are presented. They can be used in high voltage telecom, automotive and MEMS applications. Test results of an implemented IC show that it generates 0/100V transitions on outputs from 0/5V transitions on inputs. Test results confirm that this interface can perform a 5V/100V translation in 200 ns while driving a 32pF capacitive load.
