Semiconductor device, inverter unit and automobile

An automobile comprising:

• an inverter unit installed in a housing of the automobile as a power source for driving a motor of the automobile, the inverter unit including a semiconductor device comprising:
• a conductive substrate;
• at least one semiconductor chip bonded to an upper surface of the conductive substrate;
• a control terminal disposed outside the semiconductor chip and connected to a control electrode of the semiconductor chip via a lead;
• a case surrounding the semiconductor chip;
• at least one lead frame;
• and
• a sealing material sealing the semiconductor chip,
• wherein the lead frame includes
• a bonded part joined to the semiconductor chip, and
• an upright part embedded in the case, extending from the bonded part to an outer side of the control terminal, and standing upright vertically relative to an upper surface of the semiconductor chip, and
• at least part of the upright part is formed inside of the control terminal.
