A semiconductor device includes a substrate having a mounting surface, a plurality of internal terminals disposed on the mounting surface, a light-receiving element mounted on the mounting surface, a light-emitting element mounted on the mounting surface, a first bonding wire and a light-transmitting element. The light-receiving element has a light-receiving region that detects light and a plurality of element pad portions. At least one of the plurality of element pad portions is electrically connected to the light-receiving region. The light-emitting element is spaced apart from the light-receiving element along a first direction perpendicular to a thickness direction of the substrate. The first bonding wire connects one of the plurality of element pad portions of the light-receiving element to one of the plurality of internal terminals. The first bonding wire is located on a side of the light-receiving element opposite the light-emitting element along the first direction.

Semiconductor device

An optical device includes a light-emitting unit and a light-receiving unit. The light-emitting unit emits light forward in a first direction. The light-emitting unit has a light-emitting-side through hole that causes light traveling backward in the first direction to pass through. The light-receiving unit is arranged backward in the first direction relative to the light-emitting unit. The light-receiving unit has a light receiver that receives light after the light has passed through the light-emitting-side through hole.
