Abstract
A plurality of first contact holes reaching an n -type semiconductor area used as the source of a MISFET employed in a logic-DRAM mixture LSI and a plurality of second contact holes reaching another n -type semiconductor area used as the drain of the MISFET are bored through an insulation layer created over a gate electrode of the MISFET. A conductive film on the same layer as a bit line shunts the n -type semiconductor area used as the source through the first contact holes. Another conductive film shunts the n -type semiconductor area used as the drain through the second contact holes.
