Abstract: Provided is a semiconductor device including: a DC/DC converter circuit, wherein the DC/DC converter circuit includes a transistor of a normally-off type, having a first drain electrode connected to an input terminal and a first source electrode connected to an output terminal, which is formed in a first compound semiconductor substrate having a two-dimensional electron gas layer, and a transistor having a second drain electrode connected to the first source electrode and a grounded second source electrode.

Abstract: The reliability of a field effect transistor made of a nitride semiconductor material is improved. An ohmic electrode includes a plurality of unit electrodes isolated to be separated from each other. With this configuration, an on-state current can be prevented from flowing in the unit electrodes in a y-axial direction (negative direction). Further, in the respective unit electrodes, a current density of the on-state current flowing in the y-axial direction (negative direction) can be prevented from increasing. As a result, an electromigration resistance of the ohmic electrode can be improved.
