Abstract

The invention relates to an input circuit for an electronic circuit, for receiving and assessing an input signal and for driving the input signal to a downstream circuit. The input circuit includes a first reception circuit which is configured to receive and drive the input signal and has a first current consumption characteristic, the current consumption of the first reception circuit depending on the input signal to be driven, a second reception circuit which is configured to receive and drive the input signal and has a second current consumption characteristic, the current consumption of the second reception circuit depending on the input signal to be driven, wherein the first reception circuit and the second reception circuit may be activated separately, and a control circuit configured to activate either the first reception circuit or the second reception circuit and to deactivate the respective other reception circuit on the basis of the driven input signal.
