Abstract

In a semiconductor integrated circuit device with a transistor, there are a single diffusion layer and a gate base electrode provided outside of the diffusion layer to extend in a pitch direction. N (N is an odd positive integer) gate electrodes are provided above the diffusion layer in parallel in the pitch direction to extend from the gate base electrode in a height direction orthogonal to the pitch direction to pass through the diffusion layer. Source nodes are provided on the diffusion layer along one of the N gate electrodes on a side outside the N gate electrodes in a direction opposing to the pitch direction as a head gate electrode. Drain nodes are provided on the diffusion layer along another of the N gate electrodes on a side outside the N gate electrodes in the pitch direction as a last gate electrode. The drain nodes are less than the source nodes.
