Abstract
A communication circuit includes a first buffer configured to output a signal indicative of a first logic state or a second logic state, a signal in which the first logic state and the second logic state are defined being input to the first buffer, a second buffer configured to output a signal indicative of any one of the first logic state, the second logic state, and a third logic state, the signal output from the first buffer being input to the second buffer, and a monitoring circuit configured to monitor a logic state indicated by the signal output from the first buffer and cause the second buffer, in a case where the logic state does not change during a first period, to output the signal indicative of the third logic state.
