The MOS) transistor between (2) and the MOS) transistor between (2) and (2) are turned on, and R6°Ro has a finite value. Since the potential difference between ■ and ■ is larger than the potential difference between ■ and ■, the current flowing between ■ and ■ is thicker than the current flowing between ■ and ■, which means that R8 becomes smaller than Ro. As a result, the resistance value is.
