Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the priority of the basic application based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2014-52801 (filing date: March 14, 2014). This application incorporates the entire content of the basic application by referring to this basic application. technical field [0003] Embodiments of the present invention relate to semiconductor devices. Background technique [0004] An inverter circuit or the like includes a switching element (such as a MOSFET) and a freewheel diode connected in parallel to the switching element. When the inverter is operating, a current flows through the freewheel diode (reverse conduction state), thereby preventing damage to the switching element. However, when the semiconductor chip having the switching element and the chip having the freewheeling diode are separate chips, the module such as the inverter circuit becomes larger, and the size of the module cannot be reduced, and the c...
