Circuit device and electronic equipment provided with the same

In one embodiment, a circuit device that performs a certain processing operation with respect to an input signal by referring to a reference voltage and outputs the result is caused to have a function of switching the reference voltage, whereby a circuit device from which a stable output can be obtained is disclosed. The circuit device includes a comparator and a reference voltage setting circuit. The comparator compares an input voltage fed from outside with a reference voltage selected from a reference voltage set including a plurality of voltage values that are different from one another. The reference voltage setting circuit selects a voltage value lower than the reference voltage from the reference voltage set when it is detected that the input voltage in a rising transition reaches the reference voltage, selects a voltage value higher than the reference voltage from the reference voltage set when it is detected that the input voltage in a falling transition reaches the reference voltage, and sets the selected voltage value as the reference voltage of the comparator.
