Abstract

A top end of the p type connection layer is connected to the p type extension region. By forming such a p type extension region, it becomes possible to eliminate a region where an interval becomes large between the p type connection layer and the p type guard ring. Therefore, in the mesa portion, it is possible to prevent the equipotential line from excessively rising up, and it is possible to secure the withstand voltage.
