Disclosed herein are exemplary embodiments of an improved differential input buffer for signal) and a reference signal, and provides a differential amplifier output representative of a comparison of the magnitude of the input signals. As improved, input buffer circuitry comprises a pull up stage to pull up the voltage of the differential amplifier output slightly higher during an output low condition. The pull up stage is preferably, but not necessarily, activated only during a problematic condition, such as when both input signals to the differential amplifier are low. By pulling up the output, the input buffer circuit enjoys improved margin, and is able to reliably signal a low power condition even when both inputs are low.
