A semiconductor device according to the present invention includes a semiconductor chip having a semiconductor layer that has a first surface on a die-bonding side, a second surface on the opposite side of the first surface, and an end surface extending in a direction crossing the first surface and the second surface, a first electrode that is formed on the first surface and has a peripheral edge at a position separated inward from the end surface, and a second electrode formed on the second surface, a conductive substrate onto which the semiconductor chip is die-bonded, a conductive spacer that has a planar area smaller than that of the first electrode and supports the semiconductor chip on the conductive substrate, and a resin package that seals at least the semiconductor chip and the conductive spacer.
