Abstract

In a semiconductor integrated circuit device, a sheet-like temperature monitor member of vanadium oxide is provided, whose one end is connected to one via while the other end is connected to another via. A sheet-like thermal conducting layer of aluminum is provided below the temperature monitor member. A region equal to or greater than a half of the entire temperature monitor member overlies the thermal conducting layer in a plan view.
