Abstract
An NPN bipolar transistor and a PNP bipolar transistor are formed in a semiconductor substrate. The NPN bipolar transistor has a p type emitter region, a p type collector region and an n type base region and is formed in an NPN forming region. The PNP bipolar transistor has an n type emitter region, an n type collector region and a p type base region and is formed in a PNP forming region. Only one conductive type burying region is formed in at least one of the NPN forming region and the PNP forming region. A current that flows from the p type emitter region to the n type base region flows in the n type base region in a direction perpendicular to the substrate.
