ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor device comprises an MOS transistor, as a capacitive element, formed at the surface of a semiconductor substrate. A first power supply interconnection, above the substrate, applies a first power supply potential to the source and drain of the transistor. A second power supply interconnection, above the first interconnection, applies a second potential to the gate of the transistor. A third power supply interconnection is formed above, in parallel with and connected to the second power supply interconnection. An externally sourced potential is down-converted to be applied appropriately to the first, second and third power supply interconnections. This configuration achieves a semiconductor device that is less susceptible to power supply noise.
