Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a first circuit node supplied with a first signal changing between first and second logic levels, a second circuit node supplied with a second signal changing between the first and second logic levels, a third circuit node, a first transistor having a gate electrically connected to the first circuit node and a source-drain path electrically connected between the second and third circuit nodes, the first transistor being rendered conductive when the first signal is at the second logic level, a fourth circuit node supplied with a voltage level being close to or the same as the second logic level, and a second transistor having a gate electrically connected to the first circuit node and a source-drain path electrically connected between the third and fourth circuit nodes, the second transistor being rendered conductive when the first signal is at the first logic level.
