Abstract
An object of the present invention is to suppress electrical contact between an outer peripheral portion of an intermediate electrode and a front surface electrode of a semiconductor chip without increasing the area of the semiconductor chip. A facing surface of the first intermediate electrode facing a first main electrode is smaller than a facing surface of the first main electrode facing the first intermediate electrode, and has an outer peripheral protective region and a connection region surrounded by the protective region. A pressure-contact semiconductor device includes a plurality of first conductor films partially formed in the connection region, and a first insulating film formed in regions in the connection region where no first conductor films are formed and in the protective region.
