Abstract

To provide a power supply switching circuit which avoids an increase in current consumption. A power supply switching circuit includes MOS transistors provided between power supply input terminals and an output terminal, which have gates connected to each other and backgates connected to each other and are connected in series.

Claims (4)

1. A power supply switching circuit which switches power supplies of a semiconductor device supplied with the power supplies to a plurality of power supply input terminals and outputs the switched power supply to an output terminal, comprising:

respective MOS transistors provided between the power supply input terminals and the output terminal, said respective MOS transistors connected to an input terminal of each respective power supply having gates directly connected to each other, and backgates connected to each other and being connected in series, respectively, and the gate of each of the respective MOS transistors is directly connected to the output terminal.

2. The power supply switching circuit according to claim 1 , wherein the gate of the respective MOS transistor is connected to input terminal of another power supply.

3. A semiconductor device equipped with the power supply switching circuit according to claim 1 .
