    Abstract: The invention improves performance of a solid-state image sensor in which each of the pixels arranged in a pixel array part includes a microlens and plural photodiodes. The locations of the opposing sides between the photodiodes arranged side by side in each pixel are self-alignedly defined by a gate pattern. The location over wiring where the microlens is to be formed is checked and determined using as a superposition mark a check pattern of the same layer as a gate layer.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device is reduced in power consumption, the semiconductor device including a solid-state imaging device that includes pixels each having a plurality of light receiving elements. A pixel having first and second photodiodes is provided with a first transfer transistor that transfers charge in the first photodiode to a floating diffusion capacitance section, and a second transfer transistor that combines charge in the first photodiode and charge in the second photodiode, and transfers the combined charge to the floating diffusion capacitance section. Consequently, the semiconductor device is reduced in power required for activation of each transfer transistor in operation such as imaging with the solid-state imaging device.
