Abstract

Abstract A semiconductor integrated circuit comprising a semiconductor chip provided within a package, inner leads connected to the semiconductor chip, and a high-frequency noise filter connected to the inner leads. The semiconductor chip includes a high-frequency circuit. Thereby, this semiconductor integrated circuit prevents an around circuit from being damaged by high-frequency noise generated from the high-frequency circuit, without installing the noise filter around the semiconductor integrated circuit.
