Semiconductor integrated circuit and IC card using the same.

摘要

A semiconductor integrated circuit comprises a writable non-volatile memory 35; a writing voltage-generating circuit for generating a writing voltage and supplying it to the non-volatile memory; an oscillating circuit 16 generating a first clock signal and supplying it to the writing voltage-generating circuit; a timer 12 measuring a time required for applying the writing voltage to the non-volatile memory; a control circuit 11 controlling the writing to the non-volatile memory; and a switching device 18 for selecting either the first clock signal generated in the oscillating circuit, or a second clock signal to be input externally in accordance with a control signal from the control circuit, and supplying the selected signal to the timer and the control circuit as a clock. <IMAGE>
