Abstract

See full text

An internal power-source potential supply circuit for supplying an internal power-source potential with high accuracy is disclosed. An external power-source potential (VCE) is connected to the source of a PMOS transistor (Q1) having a drain for applying an internal power-source potential (VCI) to a load (11) and a gate receiving a control signal (S1) from a comparator (1). The comparator (1) outputs the control signal (S1) on the basis of a comparison result between a reference potential (Vref) and a divided internal power-source potential (DCI). The drain of the PMOS transistor (Q1) is connected to a first end of a resistor (R1), and a current source (2) is connected between a second end of the resistor (R1) and ground. A voltage provided at a node (N1) serving as the second end of the resistor (R1) is applied to a positive input of the comparator (1) as the divided internal power-source potential (DCI).
