ABSTRACT:
A base layer is formed as first and second base layers through two steps, so that only an upper base layer (second base layer) can be easily set in high impurity concentration dissimilarly to conventional one. As the result, a JFET effect can be suppressed. Further, first and second well regions are formed for the first and second base layer, respectively, to be coupled with each other to form a single well region, so that a lower well region (first well region) can be easily set higher in impurity concentration than an upper well region (second well region). As the result, a latch-up phenomenon can be prevented.
