Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a plurality of gate electrodes. Each gate electrode includes a first portion extending from a first end to a second end and a second portion extending parallel the first portion from a first end to a second end. The first and second portions are spaced from each other. A third portion of at least one gate electrode connects the first end of the first portion to the first end of the second portion of the gate electrode. A first insulating film is on the plurality of gate electrodes. A first interconnect portion is disposed on the first or second portion the gate electrode to electrically connecting the gate electrode to a gate pad. A second interconnect portion is disposed on semiconductor regions between the gate electrodes and electrically connects the semiconductor regions to an emitter pad.
