A semiconductor integrated circuit has an output terminal connected to an external load, an internal signal line by which the output terminal is connected to an internal node, and a voltage generator that outputs a voltage to the internal node, for output through the internal signal line and the output terminal to the external load. A voltage attenuating element is connected to the internal signal line to attenuate voltage swings on the internal signal line. A limiting circuit is connected to the internal node to limit the voltage at the internal node to a predetermined range. Moderate voltage swings caused by external electromagnetic interference are kept within the predetermined range by the voltage attenuating element, so that the limiting circuit does not operate and the average output voltage is not changed.
