ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor integrated circuit according to the present invention comprises an MOS substrate having a substrate region (MOS) and a source region separated from each other, a dummy MOS circuit substrate-separated from the MOS circuit and having a substrate region (dummy) and a source region (dummy) separated from each other, a substrate voltage generating circuit for generating a substrate voltage to be applied to the substrate region (MOS) and the substrate region (dummy), and a comparing circuit for measuring a current generated in the dummy MOS substrate, wherein an area ratio between the substrate region (dummy) and the source region (dummy) is substantially equal to an area ratio between the substrate region (MOS) and the source region (MOS).
