Abstract
A semiconductor device has a case, a printed circuit board, a fin, and a ceramic substrate mounting a semiconductor element thereon. The case contains the printed circuit board, the ceramic substrate and the fin. The fin and the case radiate heat transmitted from the ceramic substrate. The fin has protrusions on a contact face facing a contact face of the case. The fin contacts the case though the protrusions when the fin is fixed to the case. The protrusions serve as heat radiating path.
