ABSTRACT:
Bi-directional buffer circuit comprises a second P-channel transistor whose back gate is connected to a pad, a third P-channel transistor disposed between a gate of the second P-channel transistor and the pad with its back gate connected to the pad, and a first N-channel transistor and a fifth N-channel transistor whose gates are connected to a power source, so that an output buffer circuit, an input buffer circuit and a bi-directional buffer circuit can be produced without necessity of any additional processing step, wherein merely a single power source is incorporated, and a voltage higher than the source voltage is permitted to be applied to a common bus.
