Claim:
1. A semiconductor device comprising: a substrate including a first active region having a first conductive type and a second active region having a second conductive type different from the first conductive type; a plurality of gate electrodes extending in a first direction such that the plurality of gate electrodes are parallel to each other in a second direction, the second direction being perpendicular to the first direction; first contacts at a respective one of two sides of a skipped gate electrode of the plurality of gate electrodes, the skipped gate electrode being one of the plurality of gate electrodes connected to the first contacts; and a second contact electrically connected to the skipped gate electrode and the first contacts in the first active region such that the second contact, the skipped gate electrode and the first contacts form a single node in the first active region, wherein
