Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a semiconductor storage device whose structure and manufacturing process are simple and capable of facilitating countermeasures to any software error even when a charge quantity for storage is small, and saving stand-by failure. SOLUTION: A CMOS-SRAM equipped with a plurality of full CMOS type memory cells 1 arranged in a two-dimensional array in line and columnar directions is provided with a capacity plate 2 for reducing software error by adding a capacity to nodes ND1 and ND2. This capacity plate 2 is made common to these memory cells arranged in the columnar direction, and separated by each columnar. The capacitive conductive film of the capacity plate 2 is connected to a power supply voltage line VDD, and the voltage supply system to the capacitive conductive film is simplified. Also, when a stand-by failure occurs in the memory cell 1 in a certain column, the memory cell is substituted with a redundant memory cell. COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO
