Abstract
Provided is a semiconductor device, including: a drain region of a first conductivity type and a source region of the first conductivity type in a semiconductor substrate; a base region of a second conductivity type between the drain region and the source region; a base contact region of the second conductivity type in the base region; a gate electrode on the base region through a gate insulating film; a bidirectional diode overlapping with the gate electrode in a first direction perpendicular to the semiconductor substrate, and having one end electrically connected to the gate electrode and the other end electrically connected to the source region; a source metal layer electrically connected to the source region, the base contact region, and the other end of the bidirectional diode; and a gate metal layer electrically connected to the gate electrode, and overlapping with the source metal layer in the first direction.
