A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate of a first conductivity type, a plurality of short-circuit prevention-regions of a second conductivity type at an upper portion of the semiconductor substrate, a first insulating film on a top surface of the semiconductor substrate, a strip-shaped fuse on a top surface of the first insulating film spanning over the short-circuit prevention-regions, a second insulating film on a top surface of the fuse, and a passivation film on a top surface of the second insulating film and having an opening for laser trimming. The opening exposes the second insulating film above an area including the short-circuit prevention-regions.
