Assignee: KIOXIA CORPORATION
Field: Control (Instruments)
Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 9:
10. A semiconductor device comprising:
a regulator circuit;
a wire connected to the regulator circuit and including n connection nodes (n is an integer of 2 or more);
n load circuits connected to the n connection nodes, respectively; and
an analog circuit connected between the n connection nodes and the regulator circuit, the analog circuit configured to generate an average voltage of n voltages at the n connection nodes,
wherein the regulator circuit is configured to generate an output voltage supplied to the wire based on the average voltage generated by the analog circuit, and
wherein the analog circuit includes:
n analog voltage-current conversion circuits, each of which is connected in parallel to one of the n load circuits and configured to convert one of the n voltages at the n connection nodes into a current;
an analog averaging circuit configured to generate an average current of converted currents of the n analog voltage-current conversion circuits; and
an analog current-voltage conversion circuit configured to convert the average current into the average voltage.
