Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a lateral transistor having: a semiconductor substrate including a drift layer; a first impurity layer in the drift layer; a channel layer in the drift layer; a second impurity layer in the channel layer; a separation insulation film on the drift layer between the channel layer and the first impurity layer; a gate insulation film on a channel region between the second impurity layer and the drift layer connected with the separation insulation film; a gate electrode on the gate insulation film and the separation insulation film; a first electrode connected with the first impurity layer; a second electrode connected with the second impurity layer and the channel layer; and a field plate on the separation insulation film between the gate electrode and the first electrode and connected with the first electrode. The field plate is larger than the gate electrode in a current direction.
