Abstract: A semiconductor device comprising a plurality of circuits driven by at least one external power source, and at least one voltage converter transforming the voltage of the external power source into another voltage. At least a part of the plurality of circuits are driven by the output voltage of the at least one voltage converter, which is provided with a controller for controlling its load driving power, corresponding to the operation of the part of the plurality of circuits. The voltage converter includes a voltage limiter which is used exclusively for each of the different natures of the loads, and its operation and load driving power are controlled, depending on the operations of each of the loads.
