Abstract: The present invention provides a semiconductor integrated circuit that can perform impedance control and slew rate control independently of each other and simplify the structure of a control circuit. An output circuit comprising plural output MOSFETs connected in parallel is used, from among the plural output MOSFETs, the number of output MOSFETS to be turned on is selected by a first control means to control output impedance, and slew rate is controlled by a second control means controlling a drive signal of the output MOSFETs to be turned on.

Abstract: A semiconductor integrated circuit device, which is intended to prevent the characteristic degradation, includes multiple limiter circuits which are laid out by being scattered across a semiconductor substrate to produce an internal power voltage of a certain voltage level. Each limiter circuit is laid out so as to have its transistor formation area located just beneath the formation area of a bump electrode which puts in an externally supplied power voltage. The scattered layout of limiter circuits avoids the concentration of current to one limiter circuit and alleviates the harmful heat-up of the limiter circuits and their periphery. The shorter wiring length from the bump electrode to the transistor results in a smaller wiring resistance, alleviating the power voltage drop on the wiring.
