In a semiconductor device, a sine wave signal is input to a first input part and a cosine wave signal is input to a second input part. A multiplexer alternately selects one of the sine wave signal and the cosine wave signal. An analog to digital converter converts the output signal of the multiplexer into a digital value. A switching circuit is coupled between at least one of the first and second input parts and the multiplexer. The switching circuit is configured to be able to invert the input sine wave signal or the input cosine wave signal, in order to reduce the angle detection error due to the non-linearity error of the A/D converter.

A system of an interconnected inverter includes an inverter that converts DC power from a DC power supply into AC power and provides AC power to an AC power line, an RDC that converts a voltage value obtained by a voltage sensor into electrical angle information that shows a phase angle of an output voltage, the voltage sensor obtaining a voltage value of an output voltage from the inverter to a power grid, and an ECU that controls the inverter to provide an alternating current in synchronization with an alternating current that flows through the AC power line by using timing at which an angle shown in the electrical angle information given from the RDC attains to a prescribed angle.
