摘要:
A semiconductor device includes switching devices in an epitaxial layer on a silicon substrate. Diffusion regions of different conductivity types are provided. In some instances, an electrode layer makes ohmic contact with the epitaxial layer and extends to, and makes ohmic contact with, a diffusion region electrically connected to the epitaxial layer.

A capacitive component region is formed below a temperature detecting diode or below a protective diode. In addition, the capacitive component region is formed below an anode metal wiring line connecting the temperature detecting diode and an anode electrode pad and below a cathode metal wiring line connecting the temperature detecting diode and a cathode electrode pad. The capacitive component region is an insulating film interposed between polysilicon layers. Specifically, a first insulating film, a polysilicon conductive layer, and a second insulating film are sequentially formed on a first main surface of a semiconductor substrate, and the temperature detecting diode, the protective diode, the anode metal wiring line, or the cathode metal wiring line is formed on the upper surface of the second insulating film. Therefore, it is possible to improve the static electricity resistance of the temperature detecting diode or the protective diode.
