SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240322822 titled 'SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE
According to one embodiment, a semiconductor device includes first and second switch elements, first and second light emitting elements, first and second light receiving elements, first and second voltage control circuits, and first and second switch control circuits. The first switch control circuit is configured to cause the first light emitting element to emit light after a first time elapses after an input signal has transitioned from a first logic level to a second logic level. The second switch control circuit is configured to suspend light emission of the second light emitting element after a second time elapses after the input signal has transitioned from the second logic level to the first logic level.
