A semiconductor device is provided, which is provided with a high resistance to surge currents. The semiconductor device comprises three N+ diffusion layers 4a, 4b, and 4c in a region surrounded by an element-separating insulating film 3a. The N+ diffusion layer 4a forms a source diffusion layer of an N-channel MOS transistor 11a, the N+ diffusion layer 4c forms a source diffusion layer of another N-channel MOS transistor 11b, and the N+ diffusion layer 4b forms drain diffusion layers for two N-channel MOS transistors 11a and 11b. That is, respective drain diffusion layers of two N-channel MOS transistors are shared. Furthermore, a ring-shaped mask insulating film 18 is formed on the N+ diffusion layer 4b. A silicide layer 6b is formed on the N+ diffusion layer 4b except the area covered by the ring-shaped mask insulating film 18.
