Abstract:
1. A semiconductor device, comprising: a sealing body comprised of an insulating region; a metal-made support board which has at least a portion thereof covered with the sealing body and has a lower surface thereof exposed from the sealing body and constituting a first electrode; a first electrode lead contiguous to the support board and projects from a one-side surface of the sealing body; a second electrode lead and a control electrode lead which project from the one-side surface of the sealing body and extend parallel to the first electrode lead; a semiconductor chip which is covered with the sealing body, has a first electrode on a lower surface thereof, has a second electrode pad and a control electrode pad on an upper surface thereof, and has a lower surface thereof fixed to the support board by a conductive bonding material; first connecting means which is positioned in the inside of the sealing body and electrically connects the second electrode pad with the second electrode lead; and second connecting means which is positioned in the inside of the sealing body and electrically connects the control electrode pad with the control electrode lead, wherein the control electrode pad is arranged at a position from the control electrode lead and the second electrode lead farther than the second electrode pad, wherein the control electrode pad has a first side which is most close to the control electrode lead and the second electrode lead, wherein the second electrode pad has a second side which is most far from the control electrode lead and the second electrode lead, and wherein the first side of the control electrode pad is located at a position from the control electrode lead and the second electrode lead farther than the second side of the second electrode pad.
