Abstract: A semiconductor device manufacturing method is provided which is capable of suppressing variation of the resistance value of resistive interconnection and preventing variation of transistor performance. A gate electrode and a resistive interconnection are formed on a substrate and impurity ions are implanted into the surface of the substrate to form source/drain regions (diffusion layers: 1A, 1B) on both sides of the gate electrode. Also, impurity ions are implanted to control the resistance value of the resistive interconnection. Next, a sidewall film is formed to cover the resistive interconnection. Then a heat treatment is performed to activate the source/drain regions (diffusion layers: 1A, 1B).
