Abstract:
Apparatuses in data input/output circuits of a semiconductor device are described. An example apparatus includes an output driver and a pre-output driver. The pre-output driver includes: an output terminal coupled to the output driver and provides an output signal to the output driver; an output stage that receives a data signal and provides the output signal to the output terminal responsive, at least in part, to the data signal; and a slew rate control stage coupled to the output stage and controls a current flowing through the output stage. The output stage is disposed between the slew rate control stage and the output terminal.

Claim (Index 7):
An apparatus comprising:\n an output driver; and a pre-output driver that includes:\n an input stage; \n an output terminal coupled to the output driver, configured to provide an output signal to the output driver; \n an output stage configured to receive a data signal and to be driven by the input stage, and further configured to provide the output signal to the output terminal responsive, at least in part, to the data signal; and \n a slew rate control stage coupled to the output stage and configured to control a current flowing through the output stage, \n wherein the input stage is disposed between the output stage and the slew rate control stage.
