Abstract
A semiconductor device includes: a drain electrode including a plurality of drain finger parts; a source electrode including a plurality of source finger parts and a Kelvin source part electrically connected with the source finger parts; a sense electrode positioned between a drain finger part and the Kelvin source part, which are next to each other in a particular direction; and a gate electrode positioned between a drain finger part and a source finger part, which are next to each other in the particular direction, and between a drain finger part and the sense electrode, which are next to each other in the particular direction. The sense electrode and the Kelvin source part are electrically connected via a sense resistance due to a spacing between the sense electrode and the Kelvin source part in the particular direction.
