Abstract:
A semiconductor integrated circuit comprising:a first element connected between a first node and a first voltage line applied with a first voltage, for flowing a current from the first voltage line to the first node; a second element connected between the first node and a second voltage line applied with a second voltage lower than the first voltage, for flowing a current from the first node to the second voltage line; a first inverter having its output connected to the first node, for changing a voltage of the first node in a direction opposite to a direction of a voltage change of an input signal in response to the voltage change of the input signal; a second inverter having its output connected to a second node for output, for changing a voltage of the second node in a direction opposite to a direction of a voltage change of the first node in response to the voltage change of the first node; and a third element connected between a power source line for receiving a power source voltage and the first voltage line, for flowing a current from the power source line to the first voltage line, wherein the first voltage line is connected in common to the first and second inverters.
