    Abstract: A nonvolatile memory cell using vertical nanowire (VNW) FETs includes a program element of which a gate is connected to a word line, and a switch element that is provided between the program element and a bit line and of which a gate is connected to the word line. The program element and the switch element are each constituted by one or a plurality of VNW FETs, and these VNW FETs are arranged in a line in a first direction.

    Abstract: Characteristics of each transistor in a semiconductor device including a transistor of a memory cell are measured by an ASV monitoring circuit, a power supply voltage supplied to the semiconductor device is determined based on the measured characteristics of the transistor, a data read-out speed of the memory cell under the determined power supply voltage supplied is measured while changing a signal level of a word line by an SRAM word line monitoring circuit, the signal level of the word line is determined by comparing the measured data read-out speed of the memory cell and a specification range of the memory cell, and the signal level of the word line is appropriately set at the power supply voltage applied by the ASV.

    Abstract: A layout structure of a small-area one time programmable (OTP) memory using a complementary FET (CFET) is provided. The OTP memory has transistors TP as a program element and transistors TS as a switch element. The transistors TP are three-dimensional transistors of which channel portions overlap each other as viewed in plan. The transistors TS are three-dimensional transistors of which channel portions overlap each other as viewed in plan. The OTP memory of two bits is implemented in a small area.
