FIG. 1 is a diagram of a comparator circuit according to the present invention. The transistors 1, 2, 3, and 4 constitute a differential amplifier. Further, positive and negative power supply terminals 6 and 7, bleeder resistors 8 and 9, and an inverter 12 are provided. The reference voltage is transistors 14,15,
Consists of 16,17. The transistor 15 is of a depletion type and others of an enhancement type. Assuming that the threshold voltage of the depletion type transistor 15 is V TND and the threshold voltage of the enhancement type transistor 16 is V TNM , the reference voltage Vref is expressed by the following equation.

One electrode of the transistor 17 is connected to the negative power supply terminal 7, and the other electrode is input to the gates of the transistors 15 and 16 and one electrode and also to the gate of the transistor 4.

Next, the operation of the comparator circuit of the present invention will be described. The voltage applied to the positive power supply terminal 6 is low and the voltage V 1 at the node 10 is low.
Is smaller than the reference voltage Vref, the voltage of the output terminal 13 is at the LOW level as described above. Therefore, transistor 14 is on, while transistor 17 is off. As a result, the reference voltage Vref is input to the gate of the transistor 4 by the transistors 15 and 16. Here, when the voltage of the positive power supply terminal 6 increases and the voltage of the connection point 10 becomes larger than the Vref voltage, the output terminal 13 is inverted to the high level as described above. At this time, the transistor 14 turns off and the transistor 17 turns on. As a result,
The voltage input to the gate of the transistor 4 becomes almost equal to the voltage V SS of the negative power supply terminal 7. In such a state, no matter how much the voltage of the positive power supply terminal 6 drops, V 1 > V
Since the relationship of ref (= V SS ) is maintained, the output of the output terminal 13 is held at the high level. Further, when the voltage of the positive power supply terminal 6 drops and becomes the voltage V SS of the negative power supply terminal 7, that is, when the voltage applied to the positive power supply terminal 6 is removed, the output terminal 13 naturally goes to the LOW level and the latch state is set. It is released.
