A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor chip having first, second and third pads, first and second external terminals to which a power supply potential or a reference potential is supplied, first and second wires connecting the first and second external terminals and the first and second pads, and a third wire connecting the second external terminal and the third pad. The semiconductor chip further includes a first internal wiring connected to the first and second pads, a second internal wiring connected to the third pad, and a detection circuit. The detection circuit includes: a current source for passing a current through the first and second internal wirings; first and second resistive elements connected between the current source and the first and second internal wirings; and an amplifier circuit for amplifying a relative potential difference generated between the first and second resistive elements and outputting a detection signal.
