Abstract

PURPOSE:To change a threshold level optionally by providing inverters different in threshold level and selecting an inverter with a selection circuit. CONSTITUTION:An input signal from an external terminal 1 is led to an inverter group 2. Inverters 3, 4, 5 in the group 2 different in threshold level, respectively. A selection circuit 6 switches outputs of the inverter group 2 and supplies the result to an internal circuit 7. The selection circuit 6 selects outputs of the inverters by using selection signals S1, S2, S3. Through the constitution above, the input circuit capable of varying the threshold level of the inverter optionally is obtained.

Next, the operation of a reset circuit using OR will be described as a conventional example. It is assumed that the capacitor C is not fully discharged when replacing the battery due to the charge charged in the bypass capacitor or the like. If the terminal voltage of the OR capacitor at that time is higher than the threshold voltage of the reset circuit, no reset signal is generated even though the battery has been replaced.
