摘要:
According to this invention, there is disclosed a semiconductor device in which a memory section and a logic section are arranged on the same semiconductor chip, comprising a high-resistance element constituting a memory cell, a low-resistance line connected to the high-resistance element, a power source line serving as a power source path from a power source pad, a switching element arranged between the low-resistance line and the power source line, and a control circuit for controlling the switching element.

A plurality of standard cells are placed on a semiconductor substrate. A first aluminum wiring layer is connected to those standard cells. Below the first aluminum wiring layer, a second wiring layer is formed which is not connected to the standard cells and which, together with the first wiring layer, forms a capacitor. Between the first and second aluminum wiring layers, an insulating layer is formed. Wiring skew is adjusted by making through-holes in the insulating layer, and connecting the first and second aluminum wiring layers to each other via as many through-holes as required to vary the capacitance between them.

Memory cells, which serve as basic cells, are arranged in a matrix pattern. The memory cells are each provided with a word line which is integral with the gate electrode of a switch element and which is formed of polysilicon. A metallic interconnection layer is arranged above the word line and is applied with substantially the same potential as the word line. The metallic interconnection layer and the word line are connected together via through-holes. The through-holes are formed in through-hole cells, which also serve as basic cells. The through-hole cells and the memory cells are arranged such that the number of rows of the former and the number of rows of the latter are in the ratio of one to at least two.
