Abstract

Transistors N 1 , N 5 corresponding to a drive transistor PD 1 are formed in a cell lower part and a cell upper part, respectively, and transistors N 2 , N 6 corresponding to a drive transistor PD 2 are formed in the cell lower part and the cell upper part, respectively. A transistor P 1 corresponding to a load transistor PU 2 is formed in the cell lower part, and a transistor P 2 corresponding to a load transistor PU 1 is formed in the cell upper part.
