Problems solved by technology

That is, in such a semiconductor device, in the recovery state, the depletion layer formed between the drift layer and the base layer extends toward the lower electrode side (that is, the back side of the semiconductor substrate), and the surge peak voltage at the time of recovery ( Hereinafter referred to as surge peak voltage) tends to become larger
Also, since the surge peak voltage becomes large, there is a concern that the semiconductor device may be damaged

no. 1 Embodiment approach

[0036] A first embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings. In addition, the semiconductor device of this embodiment is preferably used as a power switching element used in a power supply circuit such as an inverter or a DC / DC converter.

[0037] Such as figure 1 As shown, the semiconductor device has a cell region 1 and a peripheral region 2 surrounding the cell region 1 . In this embodiment, there are two unit regions 1 . Furthermore, in each cell region 1, an IGBT region 3 having an IGBT element 3a and an FWD region 4 having an FWD element 4a are formed. That is, the semiconductor device according to the present embodiment is an RC (abbreviation for Reverse Conducting)-IGBT in which the IGBT region 3 and the FWD region 4 are formed in the same chip.

[0038] In the present embodiment, IGBT regions 3 and FWD regions 4 are alternately formed in one direction in each cell region 1 . Specifically, each of the IGBT regions 3 and the FWD regions 4 is formed as...
