ABSTRACT:
An inductor device with a MOS transistor internally installed is disclosed, in which an inductor can be arbitrarily connected in series or in parallel to the respective terminals of MOS transistors by applying a multi-layer wiring technique, thereby reducing the chip area. Within an inductor structure, MOS transistors which have an active region width of W .mu.m are formed in the number of n, and an inductor wire is connected to an arbitrary terminal of the MOS transistors by employing a multi-layer metal wiring process. Thus the inductor is connected to an arbitrary terminal of the MOS transistors in series. Thus an inductor device in which MOS transistors having a channel width of W.times.n .mu.m are internally installed is formed.
