SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE

摘要

A semiconductor device includes: a drift layer having a first conductivity type; a body layer having a second conductivity type; a first semiconductor region having the first conductivity type; a gate insulation film; a trench gate electrode; a first main electrode; a second semiconductor region having the second conductivity type; and a conductor region. The first main electrode is electrically connected with the body layer and the first semiconductor region. The second semiconductor region is disposed on a bottom part of the gate trench, and is surrounded by the drift layer. The conductor region is configured to electrically connect the first main electrode with the second semiconductor region and is configured to equalize, when the semiconductor device is in an off-state, a potential of the second semiconductor region and a potential of the first main electrode.
