Abstract
A semiconductor integrated circuit device comprises at least two MISFETs formed on a semiconductor substrate and connected in series in a diode connection. Each of the MISFETs has a source, a drain, a channel extending between the source and the drain, and a gate disposed over the channel through a gate insulating film. One of the MISFETs has a first threshold voltage, and the other of the MISFETs has a second threshold voltage lower than the first threshold voltage. A portion of the channel of the semiconductor substrate of each of the MISFETs has an impurity concentration equal to or less than 6.times.10.sup.14 atoms/cc.
