ABSTRACT:
A low voltage detection circuit includes a reference voltage generation circuit, a divider circuit, a comparator that serves as a comparison circuit, and a second constant current transistor connected in series with the divider circuit. An auxiliary current transistor as well as a first constant current transistor is connected in series with a load element. The auxiliary current transistor is controlled by a voltage at a drain of the second constant current transistor. A gate of the second constant current transistor and a gate of the first constant current transistor are connected with each other to form a current mirror. A size of the second constant current transistor is adjusted so that the second constant current transistor can provide a second constant current that is several times larger than a first constant current provided by the first constant current transistor.
