Abstract
A CMOS semiconductor device having a triple well structure which can block latch-up by preventing parasitic thyristors from turning on is offered with reduced layout area. The CMOS semiconductor device includes a P-type silicon substrate, a first and a second deep N-type wells formed in a surface of the P-type silicon substrate and separated from each other, a P-type well formed in the first deep N-type well, a shallow N-type well formed in the second deep N-type well, an N-channel type MOS transistor formed on a surface of the P-type well and a P-channel type MOS transistor formed on a surface of the shallow N-type well.
