摘要： A semiconductor integrated circuit device is provided, in which variation in the threshold voltage of a MISFET, for example, a MISFET pair that constitute a sense amplifier, can be reduced. In a logic circuit area over which a logic circuit such as a sense amplifier circuit required to drive a memory cell is formed, n-type active areas having no gate electrode are arranged at both edges of active areas over which a p-channel MISFET pair for constituting a sense amplifier are formed. Assuming that the width between active areas nwp1 and nw1 is L4, the width between active areas nwp2 and nw2 is L6, and the width between active areas nwp1 and nwp2 is L5, (L4-L5), (L6-L5), and (L4-L6) are set equal to almost zero or smaller than twice the minimum processing dimension, so that the variation in shape of the device isolation trenches with the widths L4, L5, and L6 can be reduced, and the threshold voltage difference in the MISFET pair can be reduced.

摘要： Providing a semiconductor device which lessen influence of the transistor threshold voltage deviation that is one of noise elements when the sense amplifiers are amplified, and which are capable of accurately sensing and amplifying micro signals having read from the memory cells in the sense amplifiers. In a DRAM chip, P+-type gate PMOSs of P+-type polysilicon gates each having a low impurity density of channel and N+-type gate NMOSs of N+-type polysilicon gates are used in a sense amplifier cross coupling section to further increase substrate voltages of the PMOSs and to decrease substrate voltages of the NMOS. For this reason, a deviation of threshold voltage caused by channel implantation is reduced, and a small signal generated on a data line at a read operation of a low-potential memory array is accurately sensed and amplified by a sense amplifier. In addition, the threshold voltages are increased by a substrate bias effect, and a leakage current in a sense amplifier data holding state is reduced.

摘要： A low threshold voltage NMIS area and a high threshold voltage PMIS area are set by a photoresist mask also used for well formation. Using a photoresist mask with openings for the NMIS and PMIS, the NMIS and PMIS areas are set by one ion implantation step. After gate oxidation, ion implantation is conducted through an amorphous silicon film onto wells, channels, and gate electrodes. A plurality of CMIS threshold voltages can be set and the gate electrodes of both polarities can be formed in a reduced number of steps using photoresist. This solves the problem in which photomasks are required as many as there are ion implantation types for wells, channel stoppers, gate electrodes, and threshold voltage control and hence the number of manufacturing steps and the production cost are increased.
