Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a cathode layer and an anode layer arranged in a first direction. The cathode layer is arranged to include a position opposing a drain wiring portion in a stacking direction of a support substrate and a component substrate. The anode layer is arranged to include a position opposing a source wiring portion in the stacking direction. A source through via is arranged to connect the source wiring portion and the anode layer. A drain through via is arranged to connect the drain wiring portion and the cathode layer.
