A CMOS bias circuit includes a starter circuits and a started circuit part which supplies a current to the outside. The starter circuits has a connection node (first terminal) between it and the started circuit part. The starter circuits includes a first MOS transistor connected at its drain to the first terminal, a first current supply circuit which supplies a starter current to the started circuit via the first MOS transistor, and a circuit which supplies a second current in a direction that interrupts a current flowing through the first MOS transistor to a node between the first MOS transistor and the first current supply circuit in accordance with a potential at the first terminal. The starter circuits has a function of preventing a current flowing between the drain and source of the first MOS transistor in the opposite direction by increasing or decreasing a gate bias of the first MOS transistor in accordance with a value of the second current.
