    Abstract: An output driver circuit provides an overcurrent protection function by a simple circuit configuration. The output driver circuit has a constant-current circuit, a constant-current mirror MOS transistor, and a selector circuit. The constant-current mirror MOS transistor and the output MOS transistor constitute a current mirror circuit. The gate of the output MOS transistor is controlled by a voltage based on a constant current generated by the constant-current mirror MOS transistor, thereby limiting the current flowing between the source and the drain of the output MOS transistor.

    Abstract: To provide a magnetic sensor circuit that outputs a desired detection pulse while preventing an erroneous detection/erroneous release pulse output when a fluctuation in a power supply voltage occurs within an operating power supply voltage range. A magnetic sensor circuit is configured to include a detection circuit that detects a fluctuation in a power supply voltage or an internal power supply voltage and so as not to latch a determination output of a comparator by a latch circuit that, on the basis of a power supply fluctuation detection signal output from the detection circuit, holds the logic of a control clock signal output from an oscillation circuit for a prescribed period of time and determines the output logic of an output terminal.

    Abstract: Provided is a magnetic sensor device, which is configured to connect each terminal of a Hall element to another end of a variable resistor having one end connected to GND by switching of four switches. Thus, a detection voltage level for a magnetic field intensity can be arbitrarily set with a small-scale circuit. The detection voltage level is determined only by the resistance ratio, and hence the influence of fluctuations in power supply voltage and manufacturing fluctuations can be suppressed. This configuration can simplify signal processing and achieve higher-speed signal processing.
