Abstract
A semiconductor device having an MOSFET serving as an element to be protected, and an electrostatic protection MOSFET element mounted on the same substrate is produced with the small number of steps while implementing a high protection ability. Low concentration regions and gate electrodes are formed and then an insulation film is formed on a whole surface. Then, etching is performed using a resist pattern as a mask to leave the insulation film in a region from a part of the gate electrode to a part of the low concentration region in each of regions Aand A, and on a side wall of the gate electrode in a region A. Then, a high concentration ion implantation is performed using the gate electrodes and the insulation films as masks, and then a silicide layer is formed.
