A power supply wiring and a pad are arranged on a first wiring layer. Then, the power supply wiring and the pad are arranged so as not to be mutually overlapped. Signal wirings are arranged on a second wiring layer. Another signal wiring is arranged on a layer different from the second wiring layer. The other signal wiring is arranged below the pad so as to be overlapped with the pad. The signal wirings and the other signal wiring are mutually connected by a plug. A buffer is arranged between the pad and the other signal wiring.
