A semiconductor device and a method for manufacturing the device using a semiconductor
substrate of a high resistance with improved Q value of a passive circuit element.
Leakage current due to an impurity fluctuation, in the high resistance semiconductor
substrate and noise resistance of an active element in the high resistance semiconductor
substrate are improved. The semiconductor device includes a bipolar transistor
at a main surface of and in the semiconductor substrate. The bipolar transistor
includes a semiconductor layer of a first conductivity type at a bottom portion
of the bipolar transistor and the semiconductor device includes a buried layer
of a second conductivity type, located in the semiconductor substrate and facing
the semiconductor layer of the first conductivity type.
