を持った半導体装置を提供することを目的とする。In general, in M/S semiconductor devices, it is known that damage to input terminals due to abnormal voltage is caused by dielectric breakdown of the gate oxide film. Countermeasures have been taken to prevent destruction by inserting resistance means between them. However, destruction of output terminals and input/output terminals of analog switches is often caused by junction breakdown between the drain diffusion layer and the substrate.
As shown in FIG. 1, in a normal M/S semiconductor device, when an abnormal voltage is applied between the output terminal 1 and the power supply terminal 9 that provides the potential of the substrate 8, the connection to the output terminal 1 occurs.
This is because the junction between the drain/diffusion layer 3 connected to the power supply terminal 9 and the substrate 5 connected to the power supply terminal 9 is thermally destroyed by an overcurrent. Similarly, for an analog switch as shown in FIG. 2, the bond between the drain diffusion layer 3 connected to the input/output terminal 2 and the substrate 8 connected to the power supply terminal 9 is destroyed. difference! Often. For these, simply inserting a resistance means between the terminal and the M/S semiconductor element, as in the case of a destruction prevention circuit for a hexagonal terminal, is not a good idea because of the electrical characteristics such as the output current and on-resistance of the semiconductor device. This is not desirable as it works against the user. Therefore, in the past, there were many cases in which no special measures were taken to prevent destruction, and they had the disadvantage of being relatively vulnerable to abnormal voltages and the like. □ This invention was made to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks, and is a semiconductor having input/output terminals that are resistant to destruction by abnormal voltages such as static electricity, without making the electrical characteristics of the input/output terminals disadvantageous. The purpose is to provide equipment.
以下、本発明の実施例を図面にもとづいて詳細に説明す

5を介してゲート電極3が配しである。FIG. 3 shows a first embodiment of the present invention, which has a drain diffusion layer 3 and a source diffusion layer 7 of a conductivity type opposite to that of the substrate 8, which are formed by diffusion on a substrate 8. 3 and a power supply terminal 9 connected to the substrate 8 via a resistor means 10 and to the source diffusion layer 7. Further, a gate electrode 3 is arranged between the drain diffusion layer 3 and the source diffusion layer 7 with a gate oxide film 5 interposed therebetween.

間に挿入さ′nた前記抵抗手段10によって電圧降下を
米たし接合に加わる電圧は下がり、電流は制限さnる。An abnormal voltage that is in the opposite direction to the junction between the drain diffusion layer 3 and the substrate 8, which are connected to the output terminal 1 and the power supply terminal 9, may be caused by static electricity, etc. If the drain diffusion layer 3 and the substrate 8
When the junction breakdown voltage is reached, a current begins to flow, but if a large current tries to flow, the voltage drop is reduced by the resistor 10 inserted between the power supply terminal 9 and the substrate 8. However, the voltage applied to the junction is reduced and the current is limited.
従って、接合を破壊する様な電流は流しない事になる。Therefore, no current will flow that would destroy the junction.
この様に前記抵抗手段10を挿入する事により前記ドレ
イン拡散層3と前記基板8の接合の破壊は防止さnる。By inserting the resistor means 10 in this manner, destruction of the bond between the drain diffusion layer 3 and the substrate 8 can be prevented.

くくする事ができる。Further, there is a connection between the output terminal 1 and the power supply terminal 9.
If an abnormal voltage is applied in the forward direction to the bond between the connected drain/diffusion layer 3 and the substrate 8, it is generally less likely to cause damage compared to a case in the reverse direction. However, in this case as well, the resistance means 1
0 limits the current by voltage drop, making it even more difficult to break down.

Therefore, the resistor means 10 cannot prevent current flow during this operation.

Although it is connected to the substrate 8, the effect can be explained in the same way as the first embodiment.

効果がある。As described above, according to the present invention, the electrical characteristics of the MIS semiconductor device can be adversely affected by inserting the resistance means between the substrate constituting the MIS semiconductor element and the power supply terminal for applying the potential of the substrate. It has a remarkable effect of preventing damage due to abnormal voltage caused by static electricity at output terminals and input/output terminals without causing damage.

It is easy to understand that resistors etc. can also be used. Furthermore, in the first and second embodiments of the present invention, it is clear that even if the substrate is replaced with the well diffusion layer of the complementary mMOE structure, exactly the same effect can be obtained.
