A semiconductor integrated circuit using a fuse element is provided, in which current flowing through the fuse element or a neighboring circuit area is reduced. The fuse element may be inserted in an inverter consisting of two MOSFETs, so as to reduce the current which directly flows through the fuse element. A flip-flop circuit is provided at the rear stage for judging whether the fuse is disconnected or not. The flip-flop circuit can be operated according to timing data generated by using an internal delay circuit, so as to reduce the current which flows to a neighboring circuit area.
