<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a semiconductor integrated circuit which prevents an input circuit from being affected by output circuit noise and achieves low power consumption in an input/output circuit. <P>SOLUTION: The semiconductor integrated circuit comprises an internal power supply step-down circuit 4 which drops a first external power supply voltage VCC and generates an internal power supply voltage VDDQ, an input circuit 1 for receiving the internal power supply voltage VDDQ, an internal circuit 2 for receiving the first external power supply voltage VCC and making connection to the input circuit 1, and an output circuit 3 for receiving a second external power supply voltage VCCQ different from the first external power supply voltage VCC and making connection to the internal circuit 2. The first and second external power supply voltages VCC and VCCQ are separated and the second external power supply voltage VCCQ is lower than the first external power supply voltage VCC. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT</p> |
