ABSTRACT:
A dummy MOSFET including a dummy gate separates nMOSFETs included in adjacent memory cells arranged in the direction in which bit lines extend. This configuration reduces a stress applied from an STI to the channel regions of the nMOSFETs. Accordingly, decrease of drive currents of the nMOSFETs is suppressed.
