Abstract
On a transistor layer having arranged thereon multiple transistors each including a drain, a source, and a gate, metal interconnection layers serving as input side interconnection layers connected to the drains of the respective transistors and metal interconnection layers serving as output side interconnection layers connected to the sources of the respective transistors are arranged in parallel. Also provided are a plurality of through holes connecting the metal interconnection layers serving as input side interconnection layers to the drains of the respective transistors and connecting the metal interconnection layers serving as output side interconnection layers to the sources of the respective transistors. Resistance values of the plurality of through holes are changed along an arranging direction of the input side interconnection layers and the output side interconnection layers. Accordingly, current densities of the transistors arranged to be distributed in a two-dimensional manner can be uniform.
