Abstract
According to one embodiment, a semiconductor device has a cell region and an end region adjacent to the cell region in a first direction and surrounding the cell region. A first semiconductor layer of a first conductivity type is in the cell region and the end region. Guard rings of a second conductivity type are at a first surface in the end region. The guard rings surround the cell region. An insulating film is on the first surface in the end region. Conductive members are on the insulating film and separated from the guard rings in a second direction. A first conductive member has a cell-region-side edge above a central portion of a first guard ring. The first guard ring has an end-region-side edge below a central portion of the first conductive member.
