Abstract
An aluminum wire is connected to a P-type layer of a polydiode element through a resistive element consisting of a barrier metal film and a tungsten plug. Another aluminum wire is connected to an N-type layer of the polydiode element through another resistive element consisting of another barrier metal film and another tungsten plug. Thus, a semiconductor device including a polydiode element which is resistant to surge or contamination is provided.
