Abstract

Abstract A semiconductor device includes a first conductive member, a second conductive member, a semiconductor chip, which is located between the conductive members, a bonding member, which is located between the first conductive member and the semiconductor chip, another bonding member, which is located between the second conductive member and the semiconductor chip, a molding resin, which is located between the first and second conductive members to seal the semiconductor chip, and a bonding member anti-sticking means, which is located between the molding resin and a surface of one member selected from the group consisting of the semiconductor chip and the conductive members. The bonding member anti-sticking means prevents the bonding members from sticking to the surface in the manufacturing process. As a result, the otherwise insufficient connection due to the sticking between the molding resin and the surface is improved, and the semiconductor device becomes durable in electric performance.
