ABSTRACT:
An object is to increase the amount of substrate noise absorbed in a guard ring, and to prevent a malfunction caused by the substrate noise in a semiconductor device including an SOI substrate provided with the guard ring. Then, there is provided a semiconductor device, including: an SOI substrate in which a support substrate10,an insulating layer11,and an SOI layer12are stacked one by one; an element section4provided in one region of the SOI substrate; and a guard ring region8provided around the element section4of the SOI substrate, wherein a first diffusion layer15provided in the SOI layer12of the element section4,and a second diffusion layer26provided in the SOI layer12of the guard ring region8are electrically connected to each other.
