摘要:
Two terminals of each of transistors (P1, N1) are connected between two terminals (A, B). A body effect compensation circuit (COMP-P1) for the transistor (P1) and a body effect compensation circuit (COMP-N1) for the transistor (N1) are arranged. The back gates of transistors (P1P, P2P) in the circuit (COMP-P1) and transistors (P1N, P2N) in the circuit (COMP-N1) are commonly connected to the back gate of the transistor (P1). The back gates of transistors (N1N, N2N) in the circuit (COMP-N1) and transistors (N1P, N2P) in the circuit (COMP-P1) are commonly connected to the back gate of the transistor (N1). With this structure, in transferring a signal from one terminal (A or B) to the other terminal (B or A) or vice verse, the signal potential is transferred to the back gates of the transistors (P1, N1) at a high speed to increase the signal transfer speed.

An output circuit comprising an output stage and a control signal generator. The output stage is constituted by a first P-channel MOS transistor and an N-channel MOS transistor. The control signal generator generates a signal for driving the gates of the MOS transistors, it comprises a NAND gate, a NOR gate NOR1 and an inverter INV1. The first P-channel MOS transistor of the output stage has a source and a back gate which are isolated in terms of potential. A second P-channel MOS transistor is provided, whose source-drain path is connected between the back gate and gate of the first P-channel MOS transistor incorporated in the output stage.

The bus hold circuit comprises: an input stage inverter (IN1) connected between a first supply voltage (Vcc) terminal and a second supply voltage (Vss) terminal and including: a first P-channel transistor (P1); and a first N-channel transistor (N1) connected in series to the first P-channel transistor, a gate of the first P-channel transistor and a gate of the first N-channel transistor being connected in common to a bus line (INA); and an output stage inverter (IN2) also connected between the first supply voltage (Vcc) terminal and the second supply voltage (Vss) terminal and including: a second P-channel transistor (P4); a third P-channel transistor (P2) connected in series to the second P-channel transistor; and a second N-channel transistor (N2) connected in series to the third P-channel transistor, a gate of the second P-channel transistor (P4) being connected to the bus line (Lout), a gate of the third P-channel transistor (P2) and a gate of the second N-channel transistor (N2) being connected in common to a drain of the first P-channel transistor (P1) and a drain of the first N-channel transistor (N1), a drain of the third P-channel transistor (P2) and a drain of the second N-channel transistor (N2) being connected in common to the bus line (Lout). In particular, back gates (i.e., the N-type well) of the first second and third P-channel transistors (P1, P4 and P2) are all connected to a source of the P-channel transistor (P2), respectively. Therefore, it is possible to prevent unnecessary current from flowing to the supply voltage terminal of the bus hold circuit, even if an output circuit supplied with a supply voltage different from that of the bus hold circuit is connected to the bus line.

摘要:
Either the power-supply potential or a ground potential is applied to a power-supply node through a switch. When a potential higher than the ground potential is applied to an output terminal while the power-supply node is connected to the ground-potential node, the potential of a back gate of a first PMOS transistor incorporated in an output section increases in accordance with the potential of the output terminal, due to a pn-junction provided between the drain and back gate of the first PMOS transistor. At this time, a second PMOS transistor whose source-drain path is connected between the back gate and gate of the first PMOS transistor is turned on, whereby the potential of the back gate of the first PMOS transistor is transferred to the gate thereof.
