Abstract
In an embodiment, a semiconductor device includes a first fuse cutting portion in which fuse lines are arranged transversely adjacent to each other, a first runner portion in which runner lines connected to the fuse lines are arranged transversely adjacent to each other but at smaller intervals than those of the fuse lines, and a first connection portion having connection lines between the fuse lines and the runner lines. An insulating barrier layer covers the connection portions so that post-process residues from fuse cutting do not cause electrical shorts between the closely formed runner lines.
