Abstract: According to an embodiment, a current detection circuit includes a transistor, an operational amplifier, and a transistor. In the transistor, the source and the gate are coupled to the source and the gate of a transistor which is provided on a high side of a drive circuit. The operational amplifier amplifies a potential difference between a drain voltage of the transistor and a drain voltage of the transistor. The transistor is provided over a current path through which a current flowing to the transistor flows, and which has the gate to which an output voltage of the operational amplifier is supplied. A value of the current flowing through the transistor is detected based on a value of the current flowing through the transistor.

Abstract: A DC-DC converter includes a high-side switch coupled between a first power supply and an output terminal, a low-side switch coupled between a second power supply and the output terminal, an inductor coupled to the output terminal, and a reverse current monitoring circuit that determines that a reverse current from the inductor to the output terminal occurs when the output terminal becomes a high voltage during a state in which the high-side switch and the low-side switch are in a dead time.

Abstract: A monitor circuit monitors a gate potential applied to a gate of a high-side transistor or monitors an output potential generated at an output terminal and generates either one or both of a high-side sampling timing and a high-side holding timing based on the monitored result. A current detection circuit detects an inductor current flowing in an inductor and generates a first detection voltage proportional to the inductor current. A sample-and-hold circuit starts a sampling operation of the first detection voltage in response to the high-side sampling timing and starts a holding operation of the first detection voltage in response to the high-side holding timing so as to output a second detection voltage.

Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a base member, a multilayer wiring layer, and a first resistive element. The multilayer wiring layer is formed on the base member. The first resistive element is formed in the multilayer wiring layer. The first resistive element includes a first conductive part, a second conductive part and a third conductive part. The second conductive part is formed over the first conductive part. The third conductive part electrically connects the first conductive part and the second conductive part with each other. A length of the third conductive part in a first direction along a surface of the base member is greater than a length of the third conductive part in a second direction along the surface of the base member and perpendicular to the first direction.
