Abstract:
A ladder resistor circuit generates a plurality of different reference voltages. A plurality of switching circuits correspond to a plurality of taps of the ladder resistor circuit. Each of the plurality of switching circuits is connected at one end to a corresponding one of the taps and connected at the other end to an output node, and has a variable on-resistance value. A control circuit selects continuous n (where n is any integer equal to or greater than 2) of the plurality of switching circuits, turns the n switching circuits on, and sets the respective on-resistance values of the n switching circuits.
