Abstract
The present invention provides a semiconductor design technology, in particular a data input buffer for use therein. This data input buffer secures a data level sensing margin in a weak data transmission cycle upon an asymmetrical data pattern transmission. Specifically, the present invention provides a technology of improving a level sensing margin in a weak data transmission cycle following after adjusting a reference level for input sensing by a constant level toward a strong data direction in a strong data transmission cycle (in case of repeating data with same polarity) by tracing a pattern of transmission data. Further, the present invention employs a method of adjusting an amount of current that flows in a data input part and a reference voltage input part to make a pull-up/pull-down of the reference level without a change of the reference voltage that is constant voltage.
