ABSTRACT:
In a semiconductor device including a memory unit and a logic unit, a generation of a step in a terminal end surface of an electroconductive plug in a region above a capacitor element is inhibited. Such semiconductor device includes an insulating layer provided on the semiconductor substrate extending from the memory unit to the logic unit; a plurality of second interconnect connecting plugs embedded in the interlayer insulating film and the interlayer insulating film in the logic unit; capacitor elements embedded in the interlayer insulating film in memory unit; and dummy plugs, embedded in the interlayer insulating film and the interlayer insulating film in a region above a region that is provided with the capacitor element in the memory unit, and insulated from the capacitor element. A plurality of second interconnect connecting plugs and the dummy plug are terminated in the top surface of the interlayer insulating film.
