Abstract
There is provided a shield-structured loop element which can suppress noise via a silicon substrate and can be manufactured by a semiconductor process. The loop element includes: a first well of a first polarity that is formed on a substrate; a deep well of a second polarity that is formed below the first well; a ring-shaped second well of a second polarity that is formed on the deep well along an outer periphery of the deep well; a third well of the first polarity that is formed in an island area surrounded by the deep well and the second well; a looped conductor that is formed in a layer above the third well and has smaller outer dimensions than those of the third well; and a first path that connects the second well to a bias power supply. The second well and the deep well are electrically connected to each other.
