This invention provides a semiconductor device having high operation
performance and high reliability. An LDD region 707 overlapping with a
gate wiring is arranged in an n-channel TFT 802 forming a driving
circuit, and a TFT structure highly resistant to hot carrier injection is
achieved. LDD regions 717, 718, 719 and 720 not overlapping with a gate
wiring are arranged in an n-channel TFT 804 forming a pixel unit. As a
result, a TFT structure having a small OFF current value is achieved. In
this instance, an element belonging to the Group 15 of the Periodic Table
exists in a higher concentration in the LDD region 707 than in the LDD
regions 717, 718, 719 and 720.
