Abstract of the Disclosure A level shifting circuit for level shifting an input signal so as to correspond with the operating level of a logic circuit of the next stage. The level shifting circuit comprises a first CMOS inverting amplifier circuit (A1) without provision of a feedback loop and a second CMOS inverting amplifier circuit (A2) whose output is coupled to the input through a low impedance element (L1), either the input or the output of the second amplifier circuit (A2) being connected to the input of the first amplifier circuit (A1). The second amplifier circuit (A2) functions as an auto-bias circuit with respect to the first amplifier circuit (A1). The level shifting circuit thus formed makes it possible to remarkably reduce power consumption and occupation area when configured as an integrated circuit.
