Reduced device count level shifter with power savings

A level shifting circuit includes an input node, an output node, a first power supply node, a second power supply node, a third power supply node, an inverter coupled to the first and second power supply nodes having an input coupled to the input node and an output, a transistor having a current path coupled between the output of the inverter an the output node, a first transistor circuit coupled between the first power supply node and the third power supply node having a first input coupled to the output of the inverter, a second input coupled to the output node, and an output, and a second transistor circuit coupled between the output node and the third power supply node having a first input coupled to the output of the first transistor circuit and a second input coupled to the input node.
