Abstract
A semiconductor memory device that includes a supply voltage pad, a ground voltage pad, and at least two data input/output pads arranged between the supply voltage pad and the ground voltage pad. The semiconductor memory device has a first pull-up driver that is connected to the second data input/output pad located at a first distance from the supply voltage pad, and a first pull-down driver that is connected to the first data input/output pad located at a second distance from the ground voltage pad.
