ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor device is provided which comprises a semiconductor chip including at least one semiconductor element and at least two surface electrodes, at least two lead terminals one of which is electrically connected to a first one of the surface electrodes, a temperature fuse element provided adjacent to the semiconductor element, and a package commonly enclosing the semiconductor chip, the fuse element, and part of the lead terminals. The temperature fuse element includes a patterned conductor strip formed on an insulating surface to be melt-cut at a predetermined temperature. One end of the patterned conductor strip is electrically connected to a second one of the surface electrodes, whereas the other end of the patterned conductor strip is electrically connected to another of the lead terminals.
