摘要:
An insulated gate semiconductor device has a semiconductor substrate having an irregular surface of raised portions and depressed portions, and a main device region and a protective circuit region. The protective circuit region is formed in a raised portion of the semiconductor substrate and includes a semiconductor device which is driven by an insulated gate electrode formed in a depressed portion of the semiconductor substrate. The raised portions and the depressed portions of the semiconductor substrate are formed by a trench etching method.
