Abstract
A semiconductor device includes element regions which each include a first region of a first conductivity type, a second region of the first conductivity type on the first region and having a higher impurity concentration than that of the first region, a third region of a second conductivity type on the second region. The second region is between the first and third regions in a first direction. A first insulating portion surrounds each element region in a first plane. A fourth region of the first conductivity type surrounds each element region and the first insulating portion in the first plane. The fourth region has a higher impurity concentration than that of the first region. A quenching structure is above a part of the fourth region in the first direction and electrically connected to the third region.
