Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a current source, an input/output (IO) region having a first IO device and a second IO device, and a core region having a core device. The first and second IO devices form with the current source a current mirror circuit. Each of the first and second IO devices has a first threshold voltage, and the core device has a second threshold voltage that is lower than the first threshold voltage. The first core device is coupled to the first and second IO devices and the current source and provides an offset voltage to the current source.
