Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor element, a capacitor, a first resin, lead frames and a second resin. The first resin forms a resin molding which covers the semiconductor element and the capacitor. The lead frames are attached to two surfaces of the resin molding and are connected to the semiconductor element and the capacitor. The second resin directly covers the capacitor and has a rigidity lower than a rigidity of the first resin. An outside of the second resin is directly covered with the first resin.
