Abstract
Apparatuses for receiving an input data signal are described. An example apparatus includes: a plurality of data input circuits and an internal data strobe generator. Each data input circuit of the plurality of data input circuits includes: an amplifier that receives data from a data terminal, and latches the data in an enable state and refrains from latching data in a disable state; and a voltage control circuit coupled to a tail node of the amplifier and provides a first voltage to the tail node during the enable state, and further provides a second voltage different from the first voltage to the tail node in a first mode and to sets the tail node in a floating state in a second mode during the disable state. The internal data strobe signal generator provides a plurality of internal data strobe signals to the plurality of corresponding data input circuits respectively.
