Abstract: The present disclosure provides a semiconductor device, including: a synchronous input terminal; a synchronous output terminal; a functional circuit, having a reference clock signal generating circuit operable to generate a reference clock signal; a signal output circuit, connected to the synchronous output terminal; and a mode setting circuit, for setting an operation mode of the functional circuit and the signal output circuit to a first mode or a second mode through a mode determination process. The functional circuit is operable to perform a predetermined functional operation in synchronization with the reference clock signal in the first mode, and perform the functional operation in synchronization with an input clock signal transmitted to the synchronous input terminal from another semiconductor device in the second mode. The signal output circuit is operable to output a clock signal based on the reference clock signal from the synchronous output terminal in the first mode.

Abstract: Systems and methods relating to battery disconnect units are disclosed. An example integrated circuit includes a first transistor operable for coupling to a first end of a coil of a DC contactor via a first pin, a second transistor operable for coupling to a second end of the coil of the DC contractor via a second pin, a third pin operable to receive an enable signal, wherein the second transistor is operable to be activated based on the enable signal and a timer operable to be activated based on the enable signal. The integrated circuit also includes circuitry operable to: in response to activating the second transistor, increase average current in the coil of the DC contactor to a first target level; in response to the timer indicating that a predetermined amount of time has elapsed, adjust the average current in the coil to a second target level, wherein the second target level is lower than the first target level; maintain an average current in the coil at the second target level until a disable signal is received via the third pin; and deactivate the second transistor in response to receiving the disable signal.

Abstract: A control circuit provided in a semiconductor device receives an input data signal during a selection period in which a selection signal has a predetermined level in synchronization with a clock signal and performs a corresponding operation corresponding to the input data signal during the selection period or after the selection period. The control circuit holds an error flag indicating whether a specific error has occurred, outputs, during a part of the selection period, a response signal corresponding to the input data signal from a data output terminal and outputs, during another part of the selection period, an error flag signal corresponding to the value of the error flag from the data output terminal.

Abstract: A turn-on circuit is configured to supply a current as a source to the gate of a high-side transistor. A first current source supplies an output current that is switchable between a first current amount and a second current amount that is smaller than the first current amount. A first switch is coupled between a first output node of a first current mirror circuit and the gate of the high-side transistor. A second current source generates a second current. A second switch is coupled between a first output node of a second current mirror circuit and the gate of the high-side transistor.
