The coupling capacitance of the wiring portions of a thermal type flow rate measuring apparatus is reduced so as to prevent a drop in the response characteristics. A detection element of the thermal type flow rate measuring apparatus includes a planar substrate made of silicon, ceramic, or the like, in which a diaphragm is formed. On the surface of the diaphragm, there are disposed a heat-generating resistor as a heat-generating element that is heated to a predetermined temperature difference from the temperature of air flow to be measured, a heat-generating element temperature-detecting resistor for detecting the temperature of the heat-generating resistor, and temperature-detecting resistors disposed on both sides of the heat-generating resistor. The detection element also includes wiring portions which have connecting terminals electrically connected to the heat-generating resistor and a wiring pattern electrically connected with the surface of the planar substrate.

An object of the invention is to realize a thermal gas flow sensor capable of reducing time fluctuation of a heating resistor. A heating resistor 3 and thermometric resistors 4 and 14 are formed on a surface of a thin-wall portion 2. Electrode drawn wires 18 to 23 and pad portions 8 to 13 are formed so as to draw signal lines from the heating resistor 3 and the thermometric resistors 4 and 14. Contact portions 24 to 29 are formed to come in contact with the heating resistor 3, the thermometric resistors 4 and 14, and the electrode drawn wires 18 to 23. The heating resistor 3 and the thermometric resistors 4 and 14 are covered with protective films 30a, 30b, and 31a and insulating films 31b and 30c. The protective films 31a and 31b are formed of a dense film formed of nitride or the like. A part coming in contact with a drawn wire portion 34 and the heating resistor 3 is covered with a contact barrier metal film 36 (titanium-based electrical conductor such as titanium nitride, titanium tungsten, and titanium). The titanium-based electrical conductor is a dense film and resistant to hydrogen. Therefore, it is possible to reduce a time fluctuation of the heating resistor.

The degree of integration and the number of rewriting of a semiconductor device having a nonvolatile memory element are improved. A first MONOS nonvolatile-memory-element and a second MONOS nonvolatile-memory-element having a large gate width compared with the first MONOS nonvolatile-memory-element are mounted together on the same substrate, and the first MONOS nonvolatile-memory-element is used for storing program data which is scarcely rewritten, and the second MONOS nonvolatile-memory-element is used for storing processed data which is frequently rewritten.

摘要:
A semiconductor device has a nonvolatile memory employing a split-gate type memory cell structure, using a nitride film as a charge storage layer. An n-type semiconductor region is formed in a main surface of a semiconductor substrate, and then, a memory gate electrode of a memory cell of a split gate type and a charge storage layer are formed over the semiconductor region. Subsequently, side walls are formed on side surfaces of the memory gate electrode, and a photoresist pattern is formed over the main surface of the semiconductor substrate. The photoresist pattern serves as an etching mask, and a part of the main surface of the semiconductor substrate is removed by etching to form a dent. In the region of the dent, the n-type semiconductor region is removed. Then, a p-type semiconductor region for forming a channel of an nMIS transistor for selecting a memory cell is formed.
