    摘要: The power control device reliably disconnects the current path of the failed output transistor. In particular, the power control device includes output transistors, an output terminal, bonding wires connecting the output transistors to the output terminal, output transistor driving circuits controlling the output of the output transistors, and a failure detection circuit detecting the failure of the output transistors. When the failure detection circuit detects the failure of the output transistors and outputs the failure detection signals, the output transistor drive circuits control the outputs of the output transistors so that a larger current flows through the bonding wires than when the failure is not detected.

    摘要: A semiconductor device includes first and second semiconductor chips mounted on one package. In the first semiconductor chip, a current generation circuit generates a sense current in accordance with a load current and a fault current indicating that an abnormality detection circuit has detected an abnormality, and allows either one of the currents to flow through a current detecting resistor in accordance with presence or absence of detection of the abnormality. In the second semiconductor chip, a storage circuit stores a current value of the fault current obtained in an inspection process of the semiconductor device as a determination reference value. An arithmetic processing circuit sets a standard range based on the determination reference value, and determines presence or absence of detection of the abnormality based on whether or not a current value indicated by a digital signal of an analog-digital conversion circuit is included within the standard range.

    摘要: A semiconductor device with the highly precise current detecting function is provided. Current detection is performed using a semiconductor device in which two semiconductor chips are mounted in one package. The first semiconductor chip is provided with an electric power supply transistor to supply power to a load via a load driving terminal, and a current detection circuit to detect a current flowing through the load driving terminal. In the inspection process of the semiconductor device, the electrical property of the current detection circuit in the first semiconductor chip is inspected, and the information on a correction equation obtained as the inspection result is written in a memory circuit of the second semiconductor chip. The second semiconductor chip corrects the detection result obtained by the current detection circuit based on the information on the correction equation written in the memory circuit concerned.
