Abstract
A semiconductor nonvolatile memory element is used to form a constant current source in a semiconductor integrated circuit device. The semiconductor nonvolatile memory element includes a control gate electrode, a floating gate electrode, source/drain terminals, a thin first gate insulating film, and a second gate insulating film that is thick enough not to be broken down even when a voltage higher than an operating voltage of the semiconductor integrated circuit device is applied thereto, the first and second gate insulating films being formed below the control gate electrode. Thus, provided is a normally on type semiconductor nonvolatile memory element in which a threshold voltage can be regulated through injection of a large amount of charge with respect to the operating voltage from a drain terminal into the floating gate electrode via the second gate insulating film, and injected carriers do not leak in an operating voltage range.
