Abstract

An object of the present invention is to suppress a crack in a sealing resin and a warpage in a semiconductor device in a power semiconductor device. A power semiconductor device includes: a semiconductor element; a terminal; a chassis; and a sealing resin sealing the semiconductor element and the terminal in the chassis. The sealing resin includes: a first sealing resin covering at least the semiconductor element; and a second sealing resin formed on an upper portion of the first sealing resin, and in an operation temperature of the semiconductor element, the first sealing resin has a smaller linear expansion coefficient than the second sealing resin, and a difference of a linear expansion coefficient between the first sealing resin and the terminal is smaller than a difference of a linear expansion coefficient between the second sealing resin and the terminal.
