Abstract

According to one embodiment, a semiconductor device includes first, second, third, and fourth circuits. A first voltage is applied to the first circuit. A second voltage is applied to each of the second, third and fourth circuits. The third circuit is configured to generate a first control signal and a second control signal based on a signal generated by the first circuit and a signal generated by the second circuit. The fourth circuit is configured to output an output signal based on the first control signal and the second control signal. The output signal is brought to a high impedance state when at least one of the first voltage or the second voltage is not applied.
