Abstract
A buffer circuit is driven with a low voltage and operates at a high speed has first and second comparators constituted by P channel and N channel MOS transistors provided between an input terminal and an output terminal of a buffer amplifier. A predetermined offset voltage is set for the comparing operation, and a switch circuit turns ON/OFF in response to an output signal from the first comparator and the output signal of the second comparator. A leading up of an output voltage from the buffer amplifier is accelerated by the current flowing from a power source line to the output terminal. The buffer circuit also includes an operation restricting circuit for restricting the comparing operation of the second comparator in a range of a dead band of the transistors.
