Abstract
An insulating film and a conducting film are formed in that order on an N type semiconductor substrate to form a capacitor structure of “conducting film—insulating film—semiconductor”; a heavily doped P region having a high impurity concentration is provided on the N type semiconductor substrate to contact a covered region which is covered with the conducting film; and furthermore a heavily doped N region for conducting an electrode on the semiconductor side is provided and connected with the heavily doped P region, resulting in quickly variance of the capacitance values in accordance with the voltage applied between the heavily doped N region and a terminal of the conducting film.
