Voltage selector device

Abstract

A voltage selector device includes a control circuit and a selection circuit. The control circuit is configured to adjust a level of a control node according to a power enable signal, a first supply voltage, and a second supply voltage. When the first supply voltage is powered up and the second supply voltage is not powered up, the control circuit adjusts the level of the control node to a first level, and when the second supply voltage is powered up, the control circuit adjusts the level of the control node to a second level that is different from the first level. The selection circuit is configured to output, based on the level of the control node and second supply voltage, a selected one of the first supply voltage and the second supply voltage that has a higher voltage level as an output voltage.
