INPUT BUFFER CIRCUIT FOR RECEIVING MULTIPLE LEVEL INPUT VOLTAGES Abstract An input buffer circuit (10) having a single input for receiving input voltages (VIN) characterized by having varying voltage swings is provided. First (12 and 15) and second (16 and 18) inverter circuits having differing switchpoint voltages are coupled to a level shifting portion (13, 17). The level shifting portion varies the level of swing of the input voltage (VIN) and buffers the input voltage (VIN). In one form, voltage coupling circuitry (22, 23) is interposed between the level shifting portion and a latching portion (25, 26) which provides the input voltage (VIN) as an output signal at a predetermined voltage level. In another form, voltage coupling circuitry (48, 53) controlled by control circuitry (49, 50, 57) couples the output of the level shifting portion (43, 44) to an output in response to the input voltage (VIN).
