Abstract

See full text

Provided are a trimming circuit which does not need a dedicated terminal to which a current for cutting a fuse is input, and also a semiconductor device including the trimming circuit. The trimming circuit includes: an input terminal connected to a pad which is an external terminal of an internal circuit; a fuse provided between a power supply terminal and an output terminal; and a diode provided between the input terminal and the output terminal. The trimming circuit performs trimming by applying, to the pad, such a voltage that the diode is biased in the forward direction.
