Abstract
A level shift device includes a high breakdown voltage element in which a voltage of an internal power supply part is applied to a gate, an external input signal is input from outside to one of a source and a drain, and the other one of the source and the drain outputs an intermediate output signal of the same phase as that of the external input signal, and a comparator comparing the intermediate output signal with a threshold value so as to perform conversion into a Hi/Lo signal defined by a voltage of the internal power supply part and outputting the signal to an internal processing circuit. The high breakdown voltage element, the comparator, the processing circuit, and the internal power supply part are enclosed in the device.
