Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a first field effect transistor and a second field effect transistor. The first field effect transistor includes a first gate electrode formed; first impurity diffused areas; and first sidewall portions. The first sidewall portions include a first lower insulation film and a first charge accumulation film. The second field effect transistor includes a second gate electrode; second impurity diffused areas; and second sidewall portions. The second sidewall portions include a second lower insulation film and a second charge accumulation film. The first lower insulation film contains one of a silicon thermal oxide film and a non-doped silicate glass, and the second lower insulation film contains a non-doped silicate glass. The second sidewall portions have a width along a gate longitudinal direction larger than that of the first sidewall portions. The second lower insulation film has a thickness larger than that of the first lower insulation film.

Abstract: A semiconductor module including a semiconductor chip having a light receiving device formed at a front thereof and a light permeable cover having a front, a back, and a side. The light permeable cover is disposed opposite to the front of the semiconductor chip such that the front of the semiconductor chip is covered by the back of the light permeable cover. The light permeable cover is provided at the outer circumferential region of the front thereof and at the side thereof with a light shielding layer. It is possible to prevent the incidence of unnecessary light from the side of the light permeable cover of a CSP and to easily adjust the distance between a lens and the front of the semiconductor chip within tolerance.
