A semiconductor substrate includes a P-type silicon substrate and an N-type epitaxial silicon layer formed on the substrate. The N-type epitaxial silicon layer is isolatedly separated into first and second N-type island regions by means of a P-type silicon region which extends from the major surface of the epitaxial silicon layer to the substrate. A power element is formed in the first N-type region. The current path of the power element extends in the first N-type island region and in the substrate, i.e., reaches a deep portion of the substrate from the major surface. The logic element is formed in the second N-type island region. The current path of the element extends only in the second N-type island region, i.e., reaches a shallow portion of the substrate from the major surface. A carrier-recombination-center layer is formed in a deep portion of the substrate, and overlaps the current path of the power element. The layer does not influence the current path of the logic element which extends only in a shallow portion of the substrate.
