Abstract
The object is to provide a technology for enabling reduction in the size of a semiconductor device. The semiconductor device includes a first semiconductor element and a second semiconductor element. An output of the first semiconductor element is connected to an output of the second semiconductor element through wiring. A main current flows through the first semiconductor element, and a sensing current flows through the second semiconductor element. The sensing current has a correlation with the main current. The semiconductor device further includes a current sensor. The current sensor senses the sensing current flowing through the second semiconductor element in a contactless manner.
