ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a semiconductor device employed for high power use and a method of manufacturing the same. According to the present invention, a temperature detecting device is formed on the same substrate with a power device. Thus, there is no need to add an external temperature sensor, whereby the device can be reduced in size. Further, an abnormal temperature of the power device is accurately detected by the temperature detecting device, whereby thermal breakdown of the power device is reliably prevented.
