Semiconductor device of a first conductivity type which has a first well of a second conductivity type formed therein and a second well of the first conductivity type formed in the first well and a pair of MOSFET formed in the first and second wells

摘要

The present invention is directed to a CMOS inverter in which an N-FET (Qn) formed of an N-type source region (2S), a drain region (2D) and a gate electrode (2G) and a P-FET (Qp) formed of a P-type source region (3S) , a drain region (3D) and a gate electrode (3G) are formed on an N-type silicon substrate (1n). A first well region (4p) is formed under the N- FET (Qn) and P-FET (Qp). Further, an N-type well region (5n) is formed on the P-FET (Qp) within the first well region (4p). Thus, an influence exerted by a back-gate effect from the substrate can be prevented completely, whereby a phase displacement relative to a pulse response to a CMOS peripheral logic circuit and a malfunction can be avoided.
