ABSTRACT:
An electronic system includes a plurality of electronic circuits each having a signal input and output function, a bus to which the plurality of electronic circuits are connected, first termination resistors connected to ends of the bus, and a termination voltage circuit having a first part generating a first voltage and a second part generating a second voltage. The sum of the first voltage and the second voltage is supplied, as a power supply voltage, to output circuits of the plurality of electronic circuits connected to the bus. The second voltage is supplied to the first termination resistors as a termination voltage.
