Abstract

A data transmission circuit has a push-pull circuit including first and second MOS transistors, sequentially connected in series between a first power source potential node and a second potential node, to which a first data signal and a second data signal defined as an inverted signal of the first data signal are respectively supplied, an output capacitance connected between the second power source potential node and a connecting node between the MOS transistor and the second MOS transistor which serves as an output node of the push-pull circuit, a transfer gate connected to the output node of the push-pull circuit, a first inverter connected to the output node of the transfer gate, and a second inverter connected to the first inverter to form a feedback loop, whereby the data are transmitted by a low quantity of consumed electric power.
