Abstract
A memory circuit includes memory cells and access circuit for accessing to desired memory cells. The access circuit is driven by a driver which includes an emitter coupled logic for providing a switch-on signal of a low level in response to an input signal. A switch circuit in the driver provides the access circuit with a drive signal of a low level in response to the switch on signal. The driver further includes a control circuit for clamping the output of the emitter coupled logic to a non-drive signal of a high level when supply voltages does not satisfy predetermined conditions.
