SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE

摘要

A semiconductor device includes a diode region and an IGBT region. The diode region includes a front side anode region, an n-type diode barrier region, an n-type diode pillar region reaching the diode barrier region through the front side anode region, and a p-type back side anode region separated from the front side anode region by the diode barrier region. The IGBT region includes a front side body region, an n-type IGBT barrier region, and a back side body region separated from the front side body region by the IGBT barrier region. When a gate-off voltage is applied to a gate electrode, a resistance between the IGBT barrier region and the emitter electrode is higher than a resistance between the diode barrier region and the anode electrode.
