A resin-sealed semiconductor device 10 of the present invention includes : a mesa-type semiconductor element 100 which includes a mesa-type semiconductor base body having a pn-junction exposure portion in an outer peripheral tapered region which surrounds a mesa region, and a glass layer which covers at least the outer peripheral tapered region; and a molding resin 40 which seals the mesa-type semiconductor element 100, wherein the mesa-type semiconductor element 100 includes a glass layer which substantially contains no Pb as the glass layer. The resin-sealed semiconductor device of the present invention can acquire higher resistance to a reverse bias at a high temperature than a conventional resin-sealed semiconductor device, although the resin-sealed semiconductor device of the present invention has the structure where the mesa-type semiconductor element is molded with a resin in the same manner as the conventional resin-sealed semiconductor device.
