4. Block diagram
A more detailed view of Figure 1 buffer is shown in Figure 2.
The output pull-down voltage of each internal buffer is set for approximately 0.5 V, while
the input threshold of each internal buffer is set about 0.07 V lower, when the output is
internally driven LOW. This prevents a lock-up condition from occurring.
