ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is an output driver for a semiconductor device with an improved slew rate. The output driver comprises a first pre-driver receiving a first signal so as to output a second signal in which a slew rate is controlled, a second pre-driver receiving a third signal so as to output a fourth signal in which a slew rate is controlled, and a pull-up transistor and a pull-down transistor connected in series between a power supply voltage and a ground voltage. The pull-up transistor is turned on and/or off by the second signal, and the pull-down transistor is turned on and/or off by the fourth signal.
