Problems solved by technology

[0009] However, in the conventional voltage regulator, there is a problem that when the potential on the VDD terminal 121 side becomes zero, the current of the backup battery flows through the resistors 1103 and 1104, so a long-term backup operation cannot be performed.
[0010] In addition, there is another problem that when the potential on the side of the VDD terminal 121 becomes zero, the Pch transistor 103 cannot be turned off and a reverse current flows.

Abstract

The invention provides a voltage regulator which can prevent reverse current from an output terminal (122) with low current consumption regardless of the voltage of a VDD terminal (121). Low current consumption can be realized through a circuit structured in such a manner that no resistor voltage divider is used in a comparison circuit which compares the voltage of the VDD terminal (121) of the voltage regulator with the voltage of the output terminal (122).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a voltage regulator with output terminals connected to a backup battery. Background technique [0002] As an existing voltage regulator whose output terminal is connected to the backup battery 112, Figure 11 The circuit shown is known (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). [0003] A power supply voltage is applied between the VDD terminal 121 and the VSS terminal 123 . Since the output terminal 122 is connected to the backup battery 112, even if the power supply voltage between the VDD terminal 121 and the VSS terminal 123 becomes zero, the load 113 (for example, RAM) at the output terminal 122 can continuously supply voltage. [0004] When a power supply voltage is supplied between the VDD terminal 121 and the VSS terminal 123 , VBAT1 is the voltage between the terminals and VBAT2 is the voltage of the backup battery, VBAT1 > VBAT2 in normal cases. When a power supply voltage is supplied between the VDD terminal 121...
