ABSTRACT:
A low power consumption input buffer is disclosed which exhibits reduced power consumption, especially that of a peak current consumed, to make a semiconductor chip (e.g., a memory device) operated in a more stable manner. The buffer employs a switching unit to block a current path so as to decrease current consumption. Noise due to a peak in the current during transmission of an input signal is decreased by using a higher resistance constantly turned-on transistor.
