  • Patent number: 8963820
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes: a trimming object circuit configured to use a trimming circuit to adjust an output based on a trimming value; and a trimming value setting circuit configured to set the trimming value. The trimming value setting circuit includes: a register configured to volatilely store a pseudo-trimming value set with reference to a trimming table such that an output value of the trimming object circuit becomes equal to a target value; a trimming value storage configured to non-volatilely store a final trimming value, wherein the final trimming value is set by correcting the pseudo-trimming value with reference to a trimming value correction table such that the output value of the trimming object circuit, which is obtained based on the pseudo-trimming value, becomes equal to the target value; and a selector configured to select one of the pseudo-trimming value and the final trimming value as the trimming value.
