Semiconductor device and method of manufacturing the semiconductor device

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprising:

• a step of mounting a semiconductor chip on a metallic pattern provided on a top surface of a substrate;
• a step of providing a case surrounding the substrate, and a back surface electrode terminal in flat plate form;
• a step of wire bonding connecting the back surface electrode terminal and the metallic pattern with a wire;
• a step of providing, above the back surface electrode terminal, a front surface electrode terminal in flat plate form, the front surface electrode terminal extending immediately above the semiconductor chip in parallel to the back surface electrode terminal, and directly joining the front surface electrode terminal to a top surface of the semiconductor chip;
• and
• a step of sealing an inside of the case with a seal material after the step of wire bonding.
