A semiconductor memory device is provided, which makes it possible to increase the capacitance of capacitors in the capacitor section without degrading the withstand voltage of the capacitor dielectric. This device comprises a memory cell section including floating-gate type transistors and a capacitor section including capacitors. The memory cell section and the capacitor section are formed on a semiconductor substrate. Each of the transistors has a first gate dielectric, a floating gate, a second gate dielectric, and a control gate. Each of the capacitors has a lower electrode, a capacitor dielectric, and an upper electrode. A first part of the capacitors is/are designed to be applied with a first voltage and a second part thereof is/are applied with a second voltage on operation, where the first voltage is lower than the second voltage. Each of the first part of the capacitors has a recess formed on the lower electrode, thereby increasing its capacitance.
