<p>A semiconductor integrated circuit that is efficiently reduced in a noise level is offered. P-channel type MOS transistors M1 and M2 serving as differential input transistors have a thin gate oxide film in order to reduce the noise level. A protection circuit to protect the P-channel type MOS transistors M1 and M2 from overvoltage is formed including P-channel type MOS transistors M3 and M4. The P-channel type MOS transistor M3 is a first protection transistor to protect the P-channel type MOS transistor M1 from overvoltage, and is connected to a drain of the P-channel type MOS transistor M1. The P-channel type MOS transistor M4 is a second protection transistor to protect the P-channel type MOS transistor M2 from overvoltage, and is connected to a drain of the P-channel type MOS transistor M2.</p>
