A semiconductor device includes a protected circuit and an electrostatic-discharge protection circuit. The electrostatic-discharge protection circuit includes a first well of a first conductivity type and a second well of a second conductivity type formed in contact with each other in a semiconductor substrate, a first impurity diffusion layer of the first conductivity type and a third impurity diffusion layer of the second conductivity type formed apart from each other in the first well, and a second impurity diffusion layer of the second conductivity type and a fourth impurity diffusion layer of the first conductivity type formed apart from each other in the second well. The second and the third impurity diffusion layers are formed adjacent to each other interposing an element isolation region provided across a border between the first and the second wells.
