PURPOSE: To reduce the number of mounting parts and to miniaturize a mounting substrate by using a transistor not used in an output buffer in LSI as a dump resistance instead of a dump resistance for external fitting.
CONSTITUTION: An internal signal terminal 1 is connected to a gate 2a of a P channel transistor 2, and a source 2b to a power source terminal 3 and a drain 2c to a source 5b of an N channel transistor 5. A gate 5a of the N channel transistor 5 is connected to the power source terminal 3 and a drain 5c to a bonding pad 4. Thus, in a conventional equivalent circuit, a dump resistance 9 is replaced by the resistance of the transistor between the source 5b and the drain 5c of the N channel transistor 5 usually in an ON state because the gate 5 is connected to the power source terminal 3.
