Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a metal member, a first semiconductor chip, a second semiconductor chip, a first solder and a second solder. A quantity of heat generated in the first semiconductor chip is greater than the second semiconductor chip. The second semiconductor chip is formed of a material having larger Young's modulus than the first semiconductor chip. The first semiconductor chip has a first metal layer connected to the metal member through a first solder at a surface facing the metal member. The second semiconductor chip has a second metal layer connected to the metal member through a second solder at a surface facing the metal member. A thickness of the second solder is greater than a maximum thickness of the first solder at least at a portion of the second solder corresponding to a part of an outer peripheral edge of the second metal layer.
