    摘要: In view of controlling overshoot when the power supply is inputted without increase in the area occupied with a chip in a voltage generating circuit mounted over a semiconductor integrated circuit, an internal voltage generating circuit comprises a voltage generating circuit for generating a second voltage from a first voltage supplied from outside, and an output buffer for generating a third voltage corresponding to the second voltage. The third voltage is used as the operation power supply of the internal circuit. Moreover, a first switch for enabling an output node of the second voltage to become conductive to the predetermined potential and a control circuit for turning ON the first switch for the predetermined period in response to input of the first voltage are also provided. An output terminal of the output buffer is not clamped but an output of the voltage generating circuit in the preceding stage is clamped to the predetermined voltage. The transistor of the first switch for clamping the voltage may be remarkably reduced in size in comparison with an output transistor of the output buffer. Accordingly, the area occupied by the chip is not enlarged.

    摘要: In order to set with a high precision the value of rush current flowing in the power switch circuit at the time of turning “on” the power, the internal circuit Int_Cir of the LSI is supplied with the internal source voltage Vint from the output transistor MP1 of the regulator VReg of the power switch circuit PSWC. The power switch circuit PSWC includes a control circuit CNTRLR and a start-up circuit STC. During the initial period Tint following the turning “on” of the power supply, the start-up circuit STC controls the output transistor MP1 and reduces the primary rush current so that the output current Isup of the output transistor MP1 may represent an approximately constant increment as the time passes. The difference ΔV between the internal current voltage due to the charge of load capacitance C with the output current Isup controlled by the start-up circuit STC and the current voltage Vint from the regulator VReg is set within the predetermined limit to reduce the secondary rush current.

    摘要: In a semiconductor integrated circuit device, having a pair of voltage step-down power supply circuits for active and standby conditions, a first reference voltage is formed by amplifying a fixed voltage formed in a fixed voltage generating circuit with an amplifying circuit which can adjust the voltage gain having a resistance circuit and a switch controlled with a first trimming switch setting signal. An internal step-down voltage, when the internal circuit is in the active condition, is outputted from a first output buffer, which is activated with a first control signal. A second reference voltage is formed by adjusting a combination of threshold voltages of MOSFETs and a switch controlled with a second trimming switch setting signal; and, an internal step-down voltage, when the internal circuit is in the standby condition, is outputted with a second output buffer, which is activated with a second control signal.
