  • Patent number: 5459350
    Abstract: A resin sealed semiconductor device includes a current-detecting resistance for detecting current flowing in a semiconductor element that is a metallic resistance having a coefficient of thermal expansion almost equal to that of the lead frame. Compared to a conventional ceramic chip resistance, its coefficient of thermal expansion differs less from that of the lead frame, thereby preventing deterioration caused by heat stress.
