Abstract
First and second MOS transistor elements, each having two source pads respectively arranged in the vicinity of two opposite corners and a gate pad arranged in the vicinity of a corner between these two corners, and a light receiving element arranged on a second terminal. In this way, wires respectively connecting gate pads of the first and second MOS transistor elements and the light receiving element are shortened. A source pad of the first MOS transistor element adjacent to the second terminal and the second terminal can be connected by a wire, so this wire can be shortened. A source pad of the second MOS transistor element adjacent to the second terminal and the second terminal can be connected by a wire, so this wire also can be shortened.
