Abstract

A technique is provided for effectively suppressing a forward voltage shift due to occurrence of a stacking fault. A semiconductor device relating to the present technique includes a first well region of a second conductivity type, a second well region of the second conductivity type which is so provided as to sandwich the whole of a plurality of first well regions in a plan view and has an area larger than that of each of the first well regions, a third well region of the second conductivity type which is so provided as to sandwich the second well region in a plan view and has an area larger than that of the second well region, and a dividing region of a first conductivity type provided between the second well region and the third well region, having an upper surface which is in contact with an insulator.
