<p>A fuse element is formed on a field insulation film on a semiconductor substrate of n conductivity type in which MOS transistors are formed. A first guard ring region of second conductivity type is provided in the substrate, surrounding the semiconductor substrate region under the fuse element. A second guard ring region of first conductivity type is formed in the substrate, surrounding the first guard ring region. Proper potentials are applied to the first and second guard ring regions.</p> |
