Abstract: In a complete CMOS SRAM having a memory cell composed of six MISFETs formed over a substrate, a capacitor element having a stack structure is formed of a lower electrode covering the memory cell, an upper electrode, and a capacitor insulating film (dielectric film) interposed between the lower electrode and the upper electrode. One electrode (the lower electrode) of the capacitor element is connected to one storage node of a flip-flop circuit, and the other electrode (the upper electrode) is connected to the other storage node. As a result, the storage node capacitance of the memory cell of the SRAM is increased to improve the soft error resistance.

Abstract: To reduce the size and improve the power added efficiency of an RF power module having an amplifier element composed of a silicon power MOSFET, the on resistance and feedback capacitance, which were conventionally in a trade-off relationship, are reduced simultaneously by forming the structure of an offset drain region existing between a gate electrode and an n+ type drain region of the power MOSFET into a double offset one. More specifically, this is accomplished by adjusting the impurity concentration of an n? type offset drain region, which is closest to the gate electrode, to be relatively low and adjusting the impurity concentration of an n type offset drain region, which is distant from the gate electrode, to be relatively high.

A metal silicide film is formed by a silicide process on a gate electrode and an n+-type source region of an LDMOSFET, and no such metal silicide film is formed on an n?-type offset drain region, an n-type offset drain region, and an n+-type drain region.

The field plate electrode does not extend above the gate electrode, and a metal silicide film is formed over the entire upper surface of the gate electrode in the silicide process.
