Abstract

The object of the invention is to provide a semiconductor device including signal-transmission interconnections preferable for transmitting high frequency signal and capability to adjust characteristics of the above signal-transmission interconnections. A semiconductor device according to the present invention consists of a signal-transmission interconnection 20 for transmission of signals, a MOS capacitance element 10 having a gate electrode connected to the signal-transmission interconnection 20, a first voltage-applying interconnection 30 connected to a source and a drain of the MOS capacitance element 10 and applying a voltage to the source and the drain of the MOS capacitance element 10, a second voltage-applying interconnection 40 connected to a well of the MOS capacitance element 10, and applying a voltage to the well of said first MOS capacitance element 10. Jitters occurring in the signal-transmission interconnection 20 can be adjusted by adjusting each of voltages of the first voltage-applying interconnection 30 and the second voltage-applying interconnection 40.
