Abstract

A data output buffer comprising a pull-up driver connected between a first voltage source and a data output line, for amplifying a first logic value of an input data signal, a pull-down driver connected between a second voltage source and the data output line, for amplifying a second logic value of the input data signal, a pull-down driver connection circuit connected between the pull-down driver and the second voltage source, for varying an impedance of the pull-down driver, and a pull-down driver control circuit for detecting whether the input data signal has its second logic value and generating a control signal in accordance with the detected result to control the operation of the pull-down driver connection circuit. According to the present invention, the data output buffer can control an amount of current flowing through the pull-down driver in a multi-step manner to minimize an impulse noise component in low logic output data on the data output line.
