Semiconductor integrated circuit device with a fail-safe IO circuit and electronic device including the same

摘要

A semiconductor IC device includes at least one IO port, a core logic, and at least one fail-safe IO circuit, the fail-safe IO circuit being coupled between the core logic and the IO port, wherein the fail-safe IO circuit is configured to receive a predetermined control signal and to maintain the IO port at a predetermined impedance with respect to the predetermined control signal.
