Abstract

See full text

An input buffer circuit is made up from: a differential amplifier that receives an input signal from the outside and a reference voltage for determining the level of the input signal; a transistor for a first operating current path for supplying a prescribed first operating current to the differential amplifier and that, by having a prescribed fixed voltage supplied to its gate, is always ON; and at least one transistor for a second operating current path for supplying a second operating current that is greater than the first operating current to the differential amplifier when ON, the transistor for the second operating current path being ON/OFF controlled in accordance with a control signal from the outside.
