Abstract

A circuit for transmitting/receiving a logic signal through a capacitor is provided, which prevents signal delay and malfunction on the receiving circuit side. The power supply voltage of the buffer that transmits the logic signal in the transmitting circuit is enhanced to be larger than the power supply voltage of the buffer that inputs the logic signal in the receiving circuit. As a result, the amplitude of the logic signal at the input point is expanded from the clipping level according to the protection diodes, so that the signal delay, as well as the malfunction are prevented.
