There is a problem that a reverse off-leak current becomes too large in a Schottky barrier diode. A semiconductor device of the present invention includes P-type first and second anode diffusion layers formed in an N-type epitaxial layer, N-type cathode diffusion layers formed in the epitaxial layer, a P-type third anode diffusion layer formed in the epitaxial layer so as to surround the first and second anode diffusion layers and to extend toward the cathode diffusion layers, and a Schottky barrier metal layer formed on the first and second anode diffusion layers.

In a conventional semiconductor device, there has been a problem that, in a region where a wiring layer to which a high electric potential is applied traverses a top surface of an isolation region, the withstand voltage is deteriorated. In a semiconductor device of the present invention, an epitaxial layer is deposited on a substrate, and an LDMOSFET is formed in one region divided by an isolation region. In a region where a wiring layer connected to a drain electrode traverses a top surface of the isolation region, a conductive plate having a ground electric potential and another conductive plate in a floating state are formed under the wiring layer. With this structure, electric field is reduced in the vicinity of the isolation region under the wiring layer, whereby a withstand voltage of the LDMOSFET is increased.

In a semiconductor device of the present invention, a MOS transistor is disposed in an elliptical shape. Linear regions in the elliptical shape are respectively used as the active regions, and round regions in the elliptical shape is used respectively as the inactive regions. In each of the inactive regions, a P type diffusion layer is formed to coincide with a round shape. Another P type diffusion layer is formed in a part of one of the inactive regions. These P type diffusion layers are formed as floating diffusion layers, are capacitively coupled to a metal layer on an insulating layer, and assume a state where predetermined potentials are respectively applied thereto. This structure makes it possible to maintain current performance of the active regions, while improving the withstand voltage characteristics in the inactive regions.

In a semiconductor device of the present invention, a protection diode for protecting a device is formed on an epitaxial layer formed on a substrate. A Schottky barrier metal layer is formed on a surface of the epitaxial layer and a P-type diffusion layer is formed at a lower portion of an end portion of the Schottky barrier metal layer. Then, a P-type diffusion layer is formed to be connected to a P-type diffusion layer and is extended to a cathode region. A metal layer to which an anode electrode is applied is formed above the P-type diffusion layer, thereby making it possible to obtain a field plate effect. This structure reduces a large change in a curvature of a depletion layer, thereby improving a withstand voltage characteristic of the protection diode.

In a semiconductor device of the present invention, a protection diode for protecting a device is formed on an epitaxial layer formed on a substrate. A Schottky barrier metal layer is formed on a surface of the epitaxial layer and a P-type diffusion layer is formed at a lower portion of an end portion of the Schottky barrier metal layer. Then, P-type diffusion layers are formed in a floating state closer to a cathode region side than the P-type diffusion layer, and are capacitively coupled with a metal layer to which an anode potential is applied. This structure reduces a large change in a curvature of a depletion layer, thereby improving a withstand voltage characteristic of the protection diode.

A semiconductor integrated circuit device according to the invention includes an N-type embedded diffusion region between a substrate and a first epitaxial layer in island regions serving as small signal section. The substrate and the first epitaxial layer are thus partitioned by the N-type embedded diffusion region having supply potential in the island regions serving as small signal section. This structure prevents the inflow of free carriers (electrons) generated from a power NPN transistor due to the back electromotive force of the motor into the small signal section, thus preventing the malfunction of the small signal section.

Collector regions (32, 33) with films capable of withstanding high voltage by laminating 4 epitaxial layers when the collector regions (32, 33) are formed. In order to reduce effects caused by interference between the transistors (21, 22) and also reduce parasitic transistor, the epitaxial layers and substrate are etched in a V-groove. Each etched region is dielectrically isolated by the poly-Si (42).
