Abstract

Provided is a semiconductor device applicable to both types of packages regardless of whether or not double bonding of a lead frame pad is allowed. The semiconductor device includes: an operational amplifier; a feedback resistor; a reference voltage generation circuit; an output transistor; a first pad which is connected to an output terminal of the output transistor, and is to be selectively connected to a lead frame pad by a bonding wire; a second pad to be selectively connected to the lead frame pad by a bonding wire; and a connection switching element provided between the first pad and the second pad. In a case in which the second pad is connected to the lead frame pad by the bonding wire, the connection switching element interrupts connection between the first pad and the second pad.

Claims (16)

1. A semiconductor device, comprising:

an operational amplifier configured to receive a reference voltage from a reference voltage generation circuit and a feedback voltage from a feedback resistor;

an output transistor to be controlled by an output signal of the operational amplifier;

a first pad which is connected to an output terminal of the output transistor, and is to be selectively connected to a lead frame pad by a first bonding wire;

a second pad to be selectively connected to the lead frame pad by a second bonding wire;

a connection switching element provided between the first pad and the second pad; and

the feedback resistor connected to the second pad and the connection switching element,

wherein, the connection switching element interrupts connection between the first pad and the second pad in a case that the second pad is connected to the lead frame pad by the second bonding wire.

2. The semiconductor device according to claim 1 , wherein the connection switching element is a fuse.

3. The semiconductor device according to claim 1 , wherein the connection switching element is a switching circuit.

4. A semiconductor device, comprising:

an operational amplifier configured to receive a reference voltage from a reference voltage generation circuit and a feedback voltage from a feedback resistor;

an output transistor to be controlled by an output signal of the operational amplifier;

a first pad connected to an output terminal of the output transistor; and

a second pad connected to the feedback resistor,

wherein, a connection between the first pad and the second pad is disconnected in a case that the first pad and the second pad are connected to a lead frame pad.
