A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor switch element having a first conductive electrode and a second conductive electrode, and a voltage measurement circuit for measuring voltage between the first conductive electrode and the second conductive electrode of the semiconductor switch element. The voltage measurement circuit includes a constant voltage element connected in parallel with the semiconductor switch element for limiting voltage applied in a conducting direction of the semiconductor switch element to a prescribed value, a control switch connected in parallel with the constant voltage element, and a switch control unit turning on the control switch when the semiconductor switch element is off, and turning off the control switch when the semiconductor switch element is on.
