PURPOSE:To reduce the series resistance for the power source and thus improve the gate breakdown strength by a method wherein a contact hole is provided along a resistor region for protection, in the titled device having said region of reverse conductivity type formed on one-conductivity type semiconductor. CONSTITUTION:Protection diodes D1, D3 and a resistor R are constructed as P type regions 4, 7, and 6 respectively formed in an N type semiconductor substrate. The region 6 meanders in order to obtain a fixed resistor length. A protection diode D2 is composed of an N type region 13 formed in a P-well 12. A wiring 3 connected to an input electrode is connected to the region 4 via contact 5 and to the region 13 via contact 14, respectively. Besides, the wiring 8 taken out via contact 9 is connected to the gates of MOSFET's Q1 and Q2. Then, a power source contact 110 is arranged in the periphery of the resistor region 6 and of the region 7 forming the diode D3. Thereby, the equivalent series resistance R3 between the P type regions 6, 7 and the power source contact can be reduced.

The VDD potential is applied to the substrate 20 via the contact 10 through the VDD wiring 2, and the V88 wiring is applied to the P-well 12 through the contact 11. I11 Yoshi Vss Rai 1st place is seen as powerful. Wiring 3 connected to an input electrode (not shown) is connected to region 4 through contact 5 and region 13 through contact 14, respectively. The wiring 8 taken out through the contact 9 is connected to the gates of Ql and Q2. In this way, since the power supplied to the substrate 20 was maintained only from below the Vnn connection #12, the P-type regions 6 and 7 forming the time-keeping resistor R and the keeping diode D3 were connected to the power supply contact 1°. The equivalent series resistance 113 of is large. As a result, the gate crushing function deteriorates. This means that the gate breakdown strength largely depends on the arrangement of the tab stain source contacts 10.
