Conventionally, input/output protection devices have separate means on the input side and output side, so the area occupied by the layout pattern is naturally larger than that of only input protection devices or only output protection devices. Ta. In addition, especially in circuit devices with a complementary MOS structure and input/output common type, it is necessary to prevent the latch-up phenomenon peculiar to the complementary MOS structure, so input/output protection using an N-type MOS structure or a P-type MOS structure is required. Furthermore, compared to the equipment,
The area occupied by the layout pattern has been increasing.

However, in today's world where high integration densities are progressing, it is extremely unreasonable and lacking in effectiveness to continue to employ the above-mentioned input/output protection devices. In other words, there are many doubts as to whether conventional input/output protection devices were the minimum necessary, so we found and adopted a layout pattern that satisfies the minimum functions necessary for input and output protection. As a result, higher integration density must be achieved than when conventional input/output protection patterns are used.

The present invention aims to have a breakdown voltage equal to or higher than the conventional input/output protection breakdown voltage, and to realize higher integration density than the conventional one.

FIG. 1 shows a layout pattern of a conventional input/output protection device, and FIG. 2 shows an equivalent circuit of FIG. 1. 1 and 2, the input/output bonding pad 11 is a Pch output transistor with a drain region 12 having a predetermined diffusion layer capacitance and an Nch output transistor connected through a predetermined N-type diffusion layer resistor 13.
The output transistor is ohmicly connected to a drain region 14 having a predetermined diffusion layer capacitance. Next, the connection to the input gate is a predetermined N type diffusion layer resistor 15.
and a predetermined polysilicon resistor 16 containing N-type impurities.
It is connected to the bonding pad 11 via. In FIGS. 1 and 2, an arrow 100 indicates an input gate. The problem with this conventional structure is that the output protection device for both Pch and Nch output transistors and the input protection device for the input gate must be separately formed and placed, so an input/output common circuit format is used. In semiconductor integrated circuits, the layout pattern inevitably occupies a large area.

Incidentally, in FIGS. 3 and 4, the arrow 100 indicates the direction to the input gate. In FIGS. 3 and 4, the input/output bonding pad 21 is
The output transistor is ohmic-connected to a drain region 22 having a predetermined diffusion layer capacitance and a drain region 24 having a predetermined diffusion layer capacitance via a predetermined N-type diffused resistor 23 .
Next, the connection to the input gate is from the drain region 24 of the Nch output transistor to the N-type diffused resistor 2.
5. In this way, by making a part of the drain region that has a predetermined diffusion layer capacitance provided for output protection also play the role of input protection, the output protection device and the input protection device can be shared to a considerable extent. This made it possible to make the layout pattern approximately 30% smaller than the conventional one. Note that the present invention is a complementary type
Effects can also be obtained with structures other than MOS structures.
