Abstract
A BiMOS integrated circuit device comprises a bipolar transistor and at least one MOSFET. The collector and emitter of the bipolar transistor are connected to a high potential source and a low potential source, respectively. The MOSFET has two gate electrodes, a source, and a drain. The source is connected to the high potential source, and the drain is the base of the bipolar transistor by a diffusion layer. The diffusion layer is located between the gate electrodes, and serves as both the base of the bipolar transistor and the drain of the MOSFET. Therefore, the MOSFET has a great channel width, and a large current can be supplied to the base of the bipolar transistor. In other words, the MOSFET has a great driving capability, and the bipolar transistor has a high amplification factor.
