Patent ID: 7750373

Claim:
A semiconductor integrated circuit device, comprising: a semiconductor chip including an internal circuit and a plurality of I/O cells, wherein: the plurality of I/O cells are provided on a periphery area of the semiconductor chip, and each of the plurality of I/O cell has at least one of a data input function and a data output function, and includes a protective circuit for protecting the internal circuit from discharge of static electricity, each of the plurality of I/O cells has a corresponding electrode pad overlapping the I/O cell in plane view and connected to the corresponding protective circuit, electrode pads of the plurality of I/O cells are arranged on a first line and a second line, the first line being disposed closer to an outermost edge of the semiconductor chip than the second line, and side edges of the electrode pads disposed on the first line, which are parallel to and closest to the outermost edge of the semiconductor chip, are disposed on a substantially same line as side edges of the plurality of I/O cells, which are parallel to and closest to the outermost edge of the semiconductor circuit.
