Abstract
A bi-directional transmitter/receiver according to an embodiment includes a pin connected with a main control circuit, a transistor connected with a first electrode to the pin, a Schmitt trigger which determines an output according to a voltage of the pin, and a temperature sensor which is connected to the pin and which senses temperature and outputs temperature information to the pin. A driving circuit for controlling switching operation of one or more switches includes a bi-directional transmitter/receiver.
