A semiconductor device formed by using semiconductor packages is provided. The semiconductor device includes two semiconductor packages adjacently arranged in opposite directions on an inductive conductor. Terminals of the two semiconductor packages are joined by a third lead. The third lead is arranged substantially in parallel to the inductive conductor. Leads at the joint portions have, for example, a bent structure, and the third lead is arranged to be close to the inductive conductor.
