ABSTRACT:
An output signal is derived from an output buffer to an external lead in a semiconductor device. In general, the output buffer is constructed using an MOS transistor and is located near a bonding pad on the chip. Therefore, the number of bonding pads which can be formed on the chip is limited by the output buffer space. The present invention provides the output buffer with a tapered or tiered shape which reduces the pitch between bonding pads. Thus, a large number of bonding pads (output buffers) can be integrated in a semiconductor chip according to the present invention.
