A semiconductor device includes bumps and a plurality of input/output areas on a substrate. Each of the input/output areas include semiconductor elements on the substrate, lower wiring patterns connected to the semiconductor elements, and input/output pins above and connected to the lower wiring patterns. The semiconductor elements provide a logic circuit and a protection circuit. The bumps are above the lower wiring patterns and connected to the input/output pins by upper wiring patterns. The input/output areas include a first input/output area and a second input/output area. The input/output areas includes a first circuit area including the electrostatic discharge protection circuit and a second circuit area including the logic circuit. In the first input/output area, the input/output pin is in the first circuit area. In the second input/output area, the input/output pin is in the second circuit area.
