摘要:
A semiconductor device wherein return wires corresponding to a plurality of fuse wires are arranged collectively in the same region. Moreover, the return wires are arranged in multiple layers. This arrangement creates a region where no return wire is disposed between the fuse wires, thereby permitting an arrangement of the fuse wires at the minimum wiring pitch. Alternatively, the semiconductor device may include fuse strings arranged in a plurality of stages and a plurality of connection wires for supplying signals to the fuse strings in the plurality of stages, respectively, wherein connection wires for other fuse strings are arranged in a region between adjacent fuse strings.

A semiconductor memory circuit comprises a plurality of shift redundancy circuits each of which is connected to two of write/read circuits and a redundancy write/read circuit. Also, a plurality of fuse elements are connected to each other in series. One of the fuse elements is connected between one of the shift redundancy circuits and a power supply potential and the others are each connected between two of the shift redundancy circuits. A program circuit is connected to one of the fuse elements disposed at an end portion opposite to the fuse element connected to the power supply potential, and selectively outputs a power supply potential or a ground potential. A plurality of cut fuse detecting circuits are provided which individually detect whether the fuse elements are cut or not, and control each of the write/read circuits and the redundancy write/read circuit in an activated or a inactivated state.

A semiconductor element wherein only one of two mutually adjacent electrodes has a split pattern that is formed on the same layer as the other electrode. The split electrode is connected to a wiring layer provided on a separate layer. When the semiconductor element is a MOSFET, the mutually adjacent electrodes are provided on a source diffusion layer and a drain diffusion layer. Specifically, they serve as a source electrode and a drain electrode, respectively. The split electrode is connected to the source diffusion layer or drain diffusion layer through a single contact hole. This allows the parasitic capacitance in the semiconductor element region to be easily reduced even when the semiconductor element, such as a MOSFET, which comprises the semiconductor integrated circuit is miniaturized.
