Claims
- 1. A semiconductor integrated circuit device comprising:
- a semiconductor chip;
- a first circuit formed in said semiconductor chip;
- a second circuit formed in said semiconductor chip;
- a high speed logic circuit formed in a central portion of said semiconductor chip;
- a first operating potential line for supplying a first predetermined high-level operating potential to said first circuit;
- a second operating potential line for supplying a first predetermined low-level operating potential to said first circuit;
- a third operating potential line for supplying a second predetermined high-level operating potential to said second circuit;
- a fourth operating potential line for supplying a third predetermined high-level operating potential to said high speed logic circuit; and
- a fifth operating potential line for supplying a second predetermined low-level operating potential to said second circuit,
- wherein said first predetermined high-level operating potential is higher than said second and third predetermined high-level operating potentials, wherein said high speed logic circuit is arranged in a central portion of said chip, wherein said second circuit is arranged to surround said high speed logic circuit, wherein said first circuit is arranged in a peripheral portion of said chip to surround said second circuit, wherein said first operating potential line is arranged adjacent to a periphery of said chip, wherein said third operating potential line is arranged in said chip inside of said first operating potential line, wherein said fourth operating potential line is arranged in said chip inside of said third operating potential line, and wherein said fifth operating potential line is so arranged inside of said first operating potential line as to surround said high speed logic circuit to protect said high speed logic circuit from an electrical field established by said first operating potential line, and wherein said second operating potential line has a major portion thereof arranged between said first operating potential line and said periphery of said chip.
- 2. A semiconductor integrated circuit device according to claim 1, wherein said high speed logic circuit includes series- and parallel-input type shift registers, and wherein said first circuit includes a plurality of drivers coupled to receive output signals of said shift registers for driving a load in accordance with the output signals of said shift registers.
- 3. A semiconductor integrated circuit device according to claim 1, wherein said first circuit has first and second elements arranged such that the first elements are larger than said second elements and are arranged in an outermost area of said chip whereas said second elements are arranged closer toward the center of said chip.
- 4. A semiconductor integrated circuit device according to claim 2, wherein the arrangement of elements composing one of said drivers is symmetrical with that of elements composing another adjacent one of said drivers.
- 5. A semiconductor integrated circuit device according to claim 1, wherein said first predetermined high-level operating potential is in a range of 150-250 volts, and wherein said second high-level operating potential is about 5 volts.
- 6. A semiconductor integrated circuit device according to claim 1, wherein said fourth operating potential line is arranged to be surrounded by said fifth operating potential line.
- 7. A semiconductor integrated circuit device according to claim 1, wherein said fifth operating potential line supplies said second predetermined low-level operating potential to said high speed logic circuit.
- 8. A semiconductor integrated circuit device according to claim 6, wherein said fifth operating potential line supplies said second predetermined low-level operating potential to said high speed logic circuit.
