Claim:
1. A semiconductor device comprising: a substrate including a circuit region and a jumper region; a first gate electrode at the jumper region of the substrate, the first electrode extending in a first direction; a first source/drain region at each side of the first gate electrode; and a connecting contact that electrically connects the first gate electrode and the first source/drain regions to each other, wherein the connecting contact comprises: a first sub-contact at each side of the first gate electrode, the first sub-contacts connected to the first source/drain regions; and a second sub-contact extending in a second direction, the second sub-contact intersecting the first direction when viewed from a plan view, the second sub-contact connected to the first sub-contacts, the second sub-contact in contact with a top surface of the first gate electrode, wherein each of the first sub-contacts has a first width in the first direction, wherein the second sub-contact has a second width in the first direction, and wherein the second width is smaller than the first width.
