ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a semiconductor device comprising an output Triode AC switch with a vertical structure, which is provided in a silicon substrate and has a gate, a first output terminal and a second output terminal, and an input/driving photo Triode AC switch, which is provided in the substrate and has a light-receiving portion, a first terminal connected to the gate and a second terminal connected to the second output terminal. The output Triode AC switch with a vertical structure is turned on when light is input to the photo Triode AC switch.
