この発明は0MO8で構成された集積回路(以下CMO
8I−Cという)に係り、特にラッチアップを防止した
0MO8I・Cに関する。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION This invention is an integrated circuit (hereinafter referred to as CMO) configured with 0MO8.
8I-C), and particularly relates to 0MO8I-C that prevents latch-up.
0MO8I・Cの動作は通常1電源で行うのが普通であ

投入順序を誤まると前記電源からCMO8I−Cの構造
に起因する過電流が流れ出す、いわゆるラッチアップ現
象が発生することがある。The operation of 0MO8I/C is normally performed with one power supply, but there are cases where two power supplies are required. At this time, if the order of turning on the power is incorrect, a so-called latch-up phenomenon may occur in which an overcurrent due to the structure of the CMO8I-C flows from the power supply.
第1図は、0MO8I−Cのラッチアップ現象を説明す

たものである。FIG. 1 is a diagram for explaining the latch-up phenomenon of 0MO8I-C, and shows the cross-sectional structure and interconnection of an 0MO8) transistor formed on an N-type substrate.

のソース7及びPウェル層8は相互接続されて共通電源
端子3に接続されている。1 is a power supply terminal with a low potential level, for example 5 to 6
2 is a power supply terminal with a high potential level,
For example, a 1O-7-12V power supply is connected. 3 is a common power supply terminal, which is normally grounded. 4.5 are P-channel and N-channel MO8) transistors, respectively. The source 6 of the P-channel MOS transistor 4 is connected to the power supply terminal 1, and the source 6 of the P-channel MOS transistor 4 is connected to the power supply terminal 1.
The source 7 and the P-well layer 8 are interconnected and connected to the common power supply terminal 3.
さて、このような接続をされた0MO8I−Cにおいて
、電源端子1のみに低い電位レベルを有する電源が接続
され、電源端子2には、まだ高い電位レベルを有する電
源が接続されていない状態を考える。Now, consider a situation in which a power supply having a low potential level is connected to only power supply terminal 1 of the 0MO8I-C connected in this way, and a power supply having a high potential level is not yet connected to power supply terminal 2. .

動されて、電源端子1及び2から共通電源端子3に向か
う過電流が生じ、いわゆるラッチアップ現象が起こる。A PNPN thyristor is configured by the substrate 9 of the source 6 of the P-channel MO8) transistor 4, the P well layer 8, and the source 7 of the N-channel MO8) transistor 5, and its anode and N gate are forward biased, The P gate and cathode are connected. Therefore, the moment a power supply with a high potential level is connected to power supply terminal 2, the above-mentioned PNPN thyristor is driven, and an overcurrent flows from power supply terminals 1 and 2 to common power supply terminal 3, resulting in so-called latch-up. A phenomenon occurs.
一方逆に電源端子2のみに高い電位レベルを有する電源

イリスタのアノードとNゲート間は逆ノ4イアスされて
いるので、低い電位レベルを有する電源が電源端子1に
接続されてもPNPNサイリスタは駆動されないので、
ラッチアップ現象は起こらない。On the other hand, when a power source with a high potential level is connected only to power terminal 2, and a power source with a low potential level is not yet connected to power terminal 2, the anode and N gate of the PNPN thyristor are reversed. 4, so even if a power supply with a low potential level is connected to power supply terminal 1, the PNPN thyristor will not be driven.
No latch-up phenomenon occurs.
従がって、このような従来の0MO8I−Cでは電源の
投入順序において、電位レベルの低い電源を電位レベル
の高い電源よシも先に印加してはならないという制約が
あった。Therefore, in such a conventional 0MO8I-C, there is a restriction in the order in which power is applied that a power source with a lower potential level must not be applied before a power source with a higher potential level.

) uses a transistor. The control element 10 can be integrated on the same substrate with the internal circuitry. The control element 10 is connected between the power supply terminal 1 having a low potential level and the internal circuit, detects whether a power supply having a high potential level is applied through the control terminal 11, and responds to this signal. The control element 10 is operated so that a power supply having a low potential level is applied to the internal circuit. In this embodiment, the control terminal 11 is directly connected to the power supply terminal 2. The power supply terminal 1 and the internal circuit are the control element 10
However, unless a power source having a high potential level is applied to the control terminal 11, the control element 10
does not operate, so a power supply having a low potential level that should operate the internal circuit is not applied to the internal circuit. Note that the resistor 12 connected between the control terminal 11 and the common power supply terminal 3 reliably keeps the control element 10 in a non-conductive state when no power having a high potential level is applied to the power supply terminal 2. It is provided for.

Since transistors are used, there is an advantage that it can be realized with a simple configuration. It goes without saying that the control element 10 is not limited to a single structure as in this embodiment, but can be constructed by combining a plurality of MOS transistors. Further, the connection position of the control terminal 11 is not limited to the power supply terminal 2 which directly has a high potential level, but may be any position where a high potential level is detected.

If the control element 10 is interposed between the anode and the power supply terminal 1, the same effects as in the first embodiment can be expected.
