Performance and reliability of a semiconductor device including a non-volatile memory are improved. A memory cell of the non-volatile memory includes, over an upper portion of a semiconductor substrate, a select gate electrode formed via a first dielectric film and a memory gate electrode formed via a second dielectric film formed of an ONO multilayered film having a charge storing function. The first dielectric film functions as a gate dielectric film, and includes a third dielectric film made of silicon oxide or silicon oxynitride and a metal-element-containing layer made of a metal oxide or a metal silicate formed between the select gate electrode and the third dielectric film. A semiconductor region positioned under the memory gate electrode and the second dielectric film has a charge density of impurities lower than that of a semiconductor region positioned under the select gate electrode and the first dielectric film.

In a memory array structured of memory cells using a storage circuit STC and a comparator CP, either one electrode of a source electrode or a drain electrode of a transistor, whose gate electrode is connected to a search line, of a plurality of transistors structuring the comparator CP is connected to a match line HMLr precharged to a high voltage. Further, a match detector MDr is arranged on a match line LMLr precharged to a low voltage to discriminate a comparison signal voltage generated at the match line according to the comparison result of data. According to such memory array structure and operation, comparison operation can be performed at low power and at high speed while influence of search-line noise is avoided in a match line pair. Therefore, a low power content addressable memory which allows search operation at high speed can be realized.
