A bidirectional switch includes a plurality of unit cells 11 including a first ohmic electrode 15, a first gate electrode 17, a second gate electrode 18, and a second ohmic electrode 16. The first gate electrodes 15 are electrically connected via a first interconnection 31 to a first gate electrode pad 43. The second gate electrodes 18 are electrically connected via a second interconnection 32 to a second gate electrode pad 44. A unit cell 11 including a first gate electrode 17 having the shortest interconnect distance from the first gate electrode pad 43 includes a second gate electrode 18 having the shortest interconnect distance from the second gate electrode pad 44.
