Abstract
A plurality of PMOS transistors are provided on a substrate along an X-axis direction such that a gate length direction of each of the PMOS transistors is parallel to the X-axis direction. A plurality of NMOS transistors are provided on the substrate along the X-axis direction such that a gate length direction of each of the NMOS transistors is parallel to the X-axis direction, and each of the plurality of NMOS transistors is opposed to a corresponding one of the PMOS transistors in the Y-axis direction. Gate lines respectively correspond to the PMOS transistors and the NMOS transistors, and are arranged parallel to each other and extend linearly along the Y-axis direction such that each of the gate lines passes through gate areas of the PMOS transistors and NMOS transistors which correspond to each of the gate lines.
