ABSTRACT:
A lower current input buffer is used for waking up a plurality of higher-current buffers. The lower current buffer monitors a wake-up signal and, when present, enables the higher current buffers. A higher current buffer is used to detect the sleep mode and disable the higher current buffers. A delay circuit may be used to balance the propagation delay through the circuit.
