[Theme] To provide a chip diode, with which a p-n junction formed on a semiconductor layer can be prevented from being destroyed and fluctuations in characteristics can be suppressed even when a large stress is applied to a pad for electrical connection with the exterior, and a diode package that includes the chip diode.[Solution] A chip diode 15 includes an epitaxial layer 21 with a p-n junction 28, constituting a diode element 29, formed therein, an anode electrode 34 disposed along a top surface 22 of the epitaxial layer 21, electrically connected to a diode impurity region 23, which is the p-side pole of the p-n junction 28, and having a pad 37 for electrical connection with the exterior, and a cathode electrode 41 electrically connected to the epitaxial layer 21, which is the n-side pole of the p-n junction 28, and the pad 37 is provided at a position separated from a position directly above the p-n junction 28.
