Semiconductor device comprising submodule having at least an upper surface exposed and method of manufacturing the semiconductor device

Abstract

An object is to provide a technique capable of easily taking out a submodule from a semiconductor device to reuse the submodule. The semiconductor device includes: a submodule in which a conductive plate and a semiconductor element mounted to an upper surface of the conductive plate via a first bonding material are sealed with a first sealing material; an insulating substrate bonded to a lower surface of the submodule via a second bonding material; a case surrounding a periphery of the insulating substrate and the submodule; and a second sealing material sealing a region surrounded by the case so that at least an upper surface of the submodule is exposed.
