Abstract:
A semiconductor device comprising:a plurality of elements formed on a semiconductor substrate; an interlayer insulating film covering said plurality of elements; a plurality of wiring blocks including a power source wire block and a ground wire block connected to said plurality of elements; an uppermost insulating film which covers these wiring blocks; and a thin film capacitor formed on said uppermost insulating film; wherein said thin film capacitor comprises at least one set of: a lower electrode, which is electrically connected to either one of said power source wire block and said ground wire block through a contact passing through said uppermost insulating film; an upper electrode, connected to either one block which is not connected to said lower electrode among said power source wire block and said ground wire block, and at least a portion of said upper electrode extends above said lower electrode; and a dielectric layer which is disposed between said lower electrode and said upper electrode.
