Abstract
The present invention provides a diode that does not deteriorate its function even if it is used in an environment where the temperature change is considerable, such as in a terminal box for solar cell panel that is placed outdoors. A diode of twin-chip-mounting type in which each chip has a lead foot for being joined to a common terminal plate, wherein said lead feet are electrically connected with each other in a region of each lead foot from each chip to a portion wherein each lead foot is joined. The electrical connection of the lead feet is preferably formed by integral molding with each lead foot.
