Abstract: A SOI MOSFET 10 may be formed from silicon single crystal as a substrate body that is formed on an embedded oxide film 11. For example, a P-type body 12, a channel section 13, and N-type source region 14 and drain region 15 are formed therein. Low concentration N-type extension regions 18, a gate electrode 17 provided through a gate dielectric layer 16 and sidewalls 19 are formed therein. A body terminal 101 in which a resistance (body resistance) Rb between itself and a body is positively increased is provided, and the body terminal 101 is connected to a source region 14. This structure realizes a SOI MOSFET with a BTS (Body-Tied-to-Source) operation accompanied by a transient capacitive coupling of a body during a circuit operation.
