Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a main IGBT region in which an IGBT is provided, a main diode region in which a diode is provided, a sense IGBT region in which an IGBT is provided, and a sense diode region in which a diode is provided. A clearance between the body region and the anode region is longer than a product of electron mobility and electron lifetime in the n-type region between the body region and the anode region. A clearance between an end of the collector region on a sense diode region side and the body region is longer than a product of electron mobility and electron lifetime in the n-type region between the end and the body region.
