Abstract

A semiconductor integrated circuit has a P-channel FET and a diode. The FET and the diode are mounted on a single island of a lead frame so that a drain of the transistor and a cathode of the diode have a common electrical potential. The island is depressed, and a non-chip-mounted surface of the island is exposed from the undersurface of a package.
