Patent number: 9240788Abstract: A communication interface circuit includes a register and a register setting circuit. The register holds a data value for controlling characteristics of an electronic circuit element included in the communication interface circuit. The register setting circuit changes a wire connection state on the basis of a control signal. The register setting circuit inputs a variable data value to the register to detect the data value corresponding to the characteristics of the electronic circuit element in a first wire connection state, and sets the data value detected in the first wire connection state in the register on the basis of a fixed value in a second wire connection state. A control circuit outputs the above control signal.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2014Date of Patent: January 19, 2016Assignee: SOCIONEXT INC.Inventors: Daisuke Suzuki, Masayuki Yamaguchi
