Abstract

Provided is a highly reliable semiconductor device in which an influence on device characteristics can be reduced while improving a high temperature and high humidity bias resistance of a termination structure (termination region) of a chip by a relatively simple method. The semiconductor device includes an active region disposed on a main surface of a semiconductor substrate, and a termination region disposed on the main surface so as to surround the active region. The termination region includes an interlayer insulating film formed on the main surface of the semiconductor substrate, and an organic protective film formed so as to cover the interlayer insulating film. An insulating film having a thickness of 100 nm or less and containing nitrogen is provided between the interlayer insulating film and the organic protective film.
