ABSTRACT:
An output buffer circuit includes first and second inverters connected to an input terminal for outputting signals having a slow rise up and fall down characteristic; a pull up control circuit that pulls up an output voltage of the first inverter and stops the pull up operation based on a level of the output signal of the first inverter; and a pull down control circuit that pulls down an output voltage of the second inverter and stops the pull down operation based on a level of the output signal of the second inverter. A first output transistor has a source connected to a first power source, a drain connected to the output terminal and a gate connected to the first inverter. A second output transistor has a source connected to a second power source, a drain connected to the output terminal and a gate connected to the second inverter.
