Abstract
A semiconductor device includes: a well region of a second conductivity-type deposited on a surface layer of a semiconductor layer of a first conductivity-type; a breakdown voltage region of the second conductivity-type arranged to surround the well region and having a lower impurity concentration than the well region; a base region of the first conductivity-type arranged to surround the breakdown voltage region; a carrier supply region of the second conductivity-type arranged on a surface layer of the base region and serving as a level shifter; and a carrier reception region of the level shifter, wherein the carrier reception region is formed of a first universal contact region including a region of the first conductivity-type and a region of the second conductivity-type arranged in contact with each other.
