摘要:
A main wall part is provided so as to surround an integrated circuit part. A sub-wall part which is in “L” shape is provided between each corner of the main wall part and the integrated circuit part. Therefore, even if the stress is concentrated due to heat treatment or the like, the stress is dispersed to the main wall part and the sub-wall part, and hence peeling between layers and a crack are unlikely to occur, as compared with the conventional art. Further, even if the crack and the like occur at the corner, moisture from the outside hardly reaches the integrated circuit part when the main wall part and the sub-wall part are coupled to each other. For this reason, it is possible to ensure an extremely high moisture resistance.

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device including an integrated circuit part in which an integrated circuit is formed and a main wall part including metal films surrounding said integrated circuit part, includes the step of selectively forming a sub-wall part including metal films between the integrated circuit part and the main wall part, in parallel to formation of the integrated circuit part and the main wall part. A sub-wall part which is in an “L” shape is provided between each corner of the main wall part and the integrated circuit part of the resulting semiconductor device.

A semiconductor device has: a semiconductor substrate having a principal surface; a fuse circuit formed above the principal surface, the fuse circuit having fuse elements each having a predetermined breaking point; a first trench isolation region formed in a surface layer of the semiconductor substrate under the fuse circuit; and a plurality of active region dummies formed through the first trench isolation region in an area excepting a predetermined area around the predetermined breaking point. Although a dummy structure is formed also in a fuse circuit, a breaking margin is prevented from being lowered and a substrate damage is avoided, while surface flatness and line width controllability are ensured.

A semiconductor memory device includes a self-testing circuit and a self-redundancy circuit with simple structures. The self-testing circuit includes a comparison circuit which compares write data with read data with respect to normal memory blocks and redundant memory blocks, and a decision circuit which decides if the semiconductor memory device is good or defective based on the plurality of comparison result signals. A signal transfer and holding circuit is connected between the comparison circuit and the decision circuit to transfer the plurality of comparison result signals to the decision circuit and to supply the plurality of comparison result signals to the self-redundancy circuit as a test result.
