A method for manufacturing a MuGFET ESD protection device having a given layout by means of a given manufacturing process, the method comprising selecting multiple interdependent layout and process parameters of which a first set are fixed by said manufacturing process and a second set are variable, selecting multiple combinations of possible layout and process parameter values which meet predetermined ESD constraints; determining an optimum value for at least one other parameter in view of a predetermined design target apart from the predetermined ESD constraints; determining values for fin width (Wfin), gate length (LG) and number of fins (N) on the basis of the optimum value; and manufacturing said MuGFET ESD protection device using the given manufacturing and process values.

A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate; a diffusion region which is formed in the semiconductor substrate and serves as a region for the formation of a MIS transistor; an element isolation region surrounding the diffusion region; at least one gate conductor film which is formed across the diffusion region and the element isolation region, includes a gate electrode part located on the diffusion region and a gate interconnect part located on the element isolation region, and has a constant dimension in the gate length direction; and an interlayer insulating film covering the gate electrode. The semiconductor device further includes a gate contact which passes through the interlayer insulating film, is connected to the gate interconnect part, and has the dimension in the gate length direction larger than the gate interconnect part.

A layout design method for a semiconductor device includes a step of arranging transistors, a dummy gate forming step of forming dummy gates, which has a shape identical with a shape including gate electrodes or the gate electrodes and projected parts from active regions of the gate electrodes, in positions in parallel with and a fixed distance apart from the gate electrodes arranged at both ends in a gate length direction on active regions of the transistors and, when the transistors have plural gate electrodes with different gate widths, extending the projected parts to the outside of the active regions by a necessary length, a gate connecting step of, when gate patterns and contact regions are connected to the gate electrodes of the transistors, connecting the gate electrodes and the dummy gates according to a positional relation between the gate electrodes and the dummy gates, and a wiring step of wiring a metal layer. It is possible to design a semiconductor device having a smaller area than that in the past and with a less design man-hour.

A semiconductor device has a well region having a first conductivity type and formed in an upper portion of a semiconductor substrate, a gate insulating film and a gate electrode formed successively on the well region of the semiconductor substrate, a threshold voltage control layer for controlling a threshold voltage formed in the portion of the well region which is located below the gate electrode and in which an impurity of the first conductivity type has a concentration peak at a position shallower than in the well region, an extension region having a second conductivity type and formed in the well region to be located between each of the respective portions of the well region which are located below the both end portions in the gate-length direction of the gate electrode and the threshold voltage control layer, and source and drain regions each having the second conductivity type and formed outside the extension layer in connected relation thereto. The junction surface between the threshold voltage control layer and the extension region has an upwardly protruding configuration.
