ABSTRACT:
An input buffer circuit for converting a TTL(TTL:Transistor transistor logic) level signal supplied from an outside into an internal CMOS level signal. The input buffer circuit comprises a power voltage terminal supplied with a power voltage, a power voltage sensing signal generator for detecting a level of the power voltage by inputting as source power the power voltage supplied to the power voltage terminal and for outputting a power voltage sensing signal respondent to the detected level, and switching means for convening an external signal into an internal signal and for performing an switching operation in response to a level of the power voltage sensing signal positioned on an output path to output the convened signal.
