- the distance between the circuit elements (the distance between the transistor 110 and the transistor 120 in this figure) is as large as possible, and the shielding wiring L13 is laid between the two elements to form a semiconductor. It prevented the propagation of noise on the surface (upper layer) of the device 100.
- FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a first embodiment of a semiconductor device (upper row: plan view, lower row: vertical cross-sectional view).
- the semiconductor device 100 of the present embodiment is based on the above-mentioned comparative example (FIG. 1), and is newly provided with a first subcontact 130 and a second subcontact 140.
- the first sub-contact 130 is arranged adjacent to each of the transistors 110 and 120 formed in the element arrangement region A (intervened between the transistors 110 and 120 in this figure).

- the p-type semiconductor region 131 mentioned above has a high impedance because the concentration of p-type impurities is relatively low. Therefore, the impedance is lowered by adding the p-type semiconductor region 132, which has a higher concentration of p-type impurities than the p-type semiconductor region 131. Further, since the p-type semiconductor region 132 is electrically conducted with the wiring L13 via the conductive member 133, low impedance is realized as the first subcontact 130 as a whole.
- the conductive member 133 electrically conducts between the wiring L13 and the p-type semiconductor region 132.
- the wiring L13 has a lower impedance than the p-type substrate 101.
- the surface resistivity of the wiring L13 (for example, Al wiring) is several tens of m ⁇ / sq, while the surface resistivity of the p-type substrate 101 is several hundred ⁇ .
- the noise transmitted from the transistor 110 to the inside (lower layer) of the semiconductor device 100 via the p-type substrate 101 propagates to the first subcontact 130 without reaching the transistor 120, and is finally grounded from the wiring L13. It is escaped toward the pad. Further, the noise transmitted on the surface (upper layer) of the semiconductor device 100 is absorbed by the wiring L13 as in the above-mentioned comparative example (FIG. 1).

- the minimum process widths W1 and W2 of the transistors 110 and 120, respectively, are often several tens of ⁇ m (about 50 ⁇ m).
- the width W3 of the first subcontact 130 is 50 ⁇ m or more (preferably 60 ⁇ m or more).

- the second sub-contact 140 is formed of the p-type semiconductor region 141, the p-type semiconductor region 142, and the conductive member 143 together with the wiring L14.
- the p-type semiconductor region 141 penetrates the n-type epi layer 102 in the vertical direction from the surface to the bottom surface, and electrically conducts between the wiring L14 and the p-type substrate 101.
- the p-type semiconductor region 141 does not form a circuit element (excluding parasitic elements) such as a transistor.
- the wiring L14 may be electrically connected to, for example, the ground pad.
- the p-type semiconductor region 141 may be formed by a process common to the p-type element separation unit 103 and the p-type semiconductor region 131.
- the p-type semiconductor region 142 is formed on the surface of the p-type semiconductor region 141. At least a part of the surface of the p-type semiconductor region 142 is exposed without being covered with the insulating layers 104 and 104x.
- the above-mentioned p-type semiconductor region 141 has a high impedance because the concentration of p-type impurities is relatively low. Therefore, the impedance is lowered by adding the p-type semiconductor region 142, which has a higher concentration of p-type impurities than the p-type semiconductor region 141. Further, since the p-type semiconductor region 142 is electrically conducted with the wiring L14 via the conductive member 143, low impedance is realized as the entire second subcontact 140.
- the conductive member 143 is electrically conductive between the wiring L14 and the p-type semiconductor region 142.
- the wiring L14 has a lower impedance than the p-type substrate 101, like the wiring L13 mentioned above. Therefore, for example, the noise that is about to enter the inside of the chip of the semiconductor device 100 can be absorbed by the second sub-contact 140.
- an operational amplifier (particularly a differential input stage) can be mentioned as one in which noise interference should be avoided. Therefore, in the following, we will consider improving the noise characteristics of the operational amplifier by adjusting the impedance.
- FIG. 3 is a diagram for explaining the basic concept of improving the noise characteristics of the operational amplifier by adjusting the impedance.
- the noise signal input from the outside to the operational amplifier 1 of this configuration example is mainly input to the noise signal N0 input to the power supply terminal VCS and the non-inverting input terminal IN +.
- Examples thereof include a noise signal N1 and a noise signal N2 input to the inverting input terminal IN-due to fluctuation of the output terminal OUT and interference from the noise input line.
- the terminal impedances of the power supply terminal VCS, the non-inverting input terminal IN +, and the inverting input terminal IN- can be raised, so that the input of noise signals N0 to N2 can be suppressed. ..
- FIG. 4 is a diagram showing how a low-pass filter (so-called EMI [electro-magnetic interference] filter) is formed inside the operational amplifier 1 using resistors R0 to R2.
- EMI electro-magnetic interference
- the resistor R0 forms a low-pass filter together with the parasitic capacitor C0 attached to the power supply line of the operational amplifier 1. Further, the resistors R1 and R2 form a low-pass filter together with the parasitic capacitors C1 and C2 attached to the pnp-type bipolar transistors Q1 and Q2 forming the input stage of the operational amplifier 1, respectively.
- the parasitic capacitors C0 to C2 attached to each part thereof are used as the components of the low-pass filter.
- the resistance value R of each of the resistors R1 and R2 may be set based on the following equation (1) from the capacitance value C of each of the parasitic capacitors C1 and C2 and the target cutoff frequency fc of the low-pass filter.
- the resistance value of the resistor R0 may also be basically set based on the above equation (1). However, since the resistor R0 is inserted in the power supply line of the operational amplifier 1, careful attention should be paid to the setting of the resistance value so that the power supply voltage of the operational amplifier 1 does not fall below the drive lower limit voltage thereof. If only a minimum resistor can be used as the resistor R0, the minimum required capacitor may be added separately together with the parasitic capacitor C0.

Further, the inverting input node ( ⁇ ) of the operational amplifier 1 is connected to the inverting input terminal IN ⁇ of the semiconductor device 100 via the resistor R2. In this figure, an example in which the operational amplifier 1 of one channel is integrated in the semiconductor device 100 is given, but the operational amplifier 1 of a plurality of channels may be integrated.
- the reference current setting unit 2 sets the reference current Iref flowing inside the operational amplifier 1.

- the cathode of the electrostatic protection diode D2 is connected to the inverting input terminal IN ⁇ of the semiconductor device 100.
- the anodes of the electrostatic protection diodes D1 and D2 are both connected to the ground terminal VEE of the semiconductor device 100. As described above, if the configuration has the electrostatic protection diodes D1 and D2, it is possible to improve the surge resistance.
- a bypass capacitor for example, 100 pF for stabilizing the power supply voltage is often inserted between the power supply terminal and the ground terminal.
- the bypass capacitor is not connected between the power supply terminal VCS and the ground terminal VEE, and further, the power supply line L1 and the ground line are not connected.
