Abstract

A semiconductor integrated device in which electrostatic discharge damage can be reliably prevented, includes a semiconductor substrate in which an electrostatic protection circuit including a second diffusion region surrounding a first diffusion region as a local region is formed in a main surface; a metal pad opposed to the main surface; and a conductive bump formed so as to face a top surface of the metal pad, wherein in a surface opposed to the metal pad of the conductive bump, a projection which is in contact with the metal pad is provided in a range opposed to the first diffusion region.
