Interface circuit
First Claim
1. An interface circuit comprising:
- a first and a second input terminal;
a first output transistor;
a second output transistor;
a first output controller for implementing control according to a voltage supplied to the first and the second input terminal so that a predetermined current appears at a control terminal of the first output transistor if the first output transistor is in saturated state and supplies a predetermined current to the control terminal of the first output transistor if the first output transistor is in shutoff state; and
a second output controller for implementing control according to a voltage supplied to the first and the second input terminal so that a predetermined current appears at a control terminal of the second output transistor if the second output transistor is in saturated state and supplies a predetermined current to the control terminal of the second output transistor if the second output transistor is in shutoff state.
