Abstract

A semiconductor integrated circuit comprising first n-channel MISFETs constituting the memory cells of a storage system, second n-channel MISFETs constituting the peripheral circuits of the storage system, and third n-channel MISFETs constituting the output circuit among the peripheral circuits. The respective threshold voltages of the first n-channel MISFETs, the second n-channel MISFETs and the third n-channel MISFETs are decreased in that order when the respective gate lengths of those MISFETs are substantially the same.
