Abstract
A highly reliable semiconductor device which uses an oxide semiconductor film for a backplane is provided. A semiconductor device includes a first conductive film, a first insulating film over the first conductive film, an oxide semiconductor film which is over the first insulating film and overlaps with the first conductive film, a second insulating film over the oxide semiconductor film, and a pair of second conductive films electrically connected to the oxide semiconductor film through an opening portion included in the second insulating film. The second insulating film overlaps with a region of the oxide insulating film in which a carrier flows between the pair of second conductive films and overlaps with end portions of the oxide semiconductor film.
