Abstract

A semiconductor integrated circuit and its operating method are provided. The present circuit has first and second supply terminals capable of supplying first and second power supply voltages respectively, an input voltage selection circuit coupled to the first and second supply terminals, and first and second power supply switches. The input voltage selection circuit includes a power-on reset circuit, an input voltage detection circuit and a control circuit. When the supply of the first or second power supply voltage to one of both supply terminals is detected upon completion of a power on reset operation, one of both power supply switches and the other thereof are controlled to on and off respectively. When the supply of both power supply voltages to both supply terminals is detected, the one thereof and the other thereof are respectively controlled to on and off according to the preset order of precedence.

Description

[0001] Related Application Cross Reference [0002] The disclosure of Japanese Patent Application No. 2012-120696 filed on May 28, 2012 including specification, drawings and abstract is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to a semiconductor integrated circuit and an operating method thereof, and particularly relates to a technique effective for realizing an electronic circuit for automatically selecting a power source to be used from among a plurality of power sources. Background technique [0004] As described in, for example, each of the following Patent Documents 1 and 2, the IC card is equipped with a semiconductor integrated circuit and an antenna coil, and the power supply to the IC card is received by the antenna coil from a signal called "reader / writer". The RF signal output by the read / write device of the "card reader" is executed by rectifying the RF signal by the rectification circuit. Therefore...
