Semiconductor device manufacturing methods

Abstract

Methods of manufacturing a semiconductor device including a high-voltage device region and a low-voltage device region are provided. An illustrated method includes forming, on a substrate, a gate pattern for a high-voltage device and a low-voltage device; implanting ions into opposite sides of the gate pattern, to form a lightly doped drain structure while implanting ions into a portion of the high-voltage device region under the same conditions as the low-voltage device region to form an electrostatic discharge protecting device region; forming a spacer at the side surface of the gate pattern; forming a source region and a drain source at field regions disposed at the opposite sides of the gate pattern, respectively; and forming a metal layer on the front surface of the substrate including the gate pattern.
