1. A semiconductor device, comprising:
an insulated circuit substrate, including
a base plate,
a resin layer disposed on a front surface of the base plate, and
a circuit pattern disposed on a front surface of the resin layer; and
a semiconductor chip that is rectangular in a plan view of the semiconductor device and is bonded to a front surface of the circuit pattern in such a manner that a side edge of the semiconductor chip is spaced inwardly from an outer peripheral edge of the circuit pattern by at least a predetermined distance, wherein
both the predetermined distance and a thickness of the circuit pattern are greater than or equal to 0.1 of a length of one side of the semiconductor chip, and
in a depth direction of the semiconductor device, a bottommost portion of the circuit pattern is closer to the base plate than is a topmost portion of the resin layer, and a topmost portion of the circuit pattern is farther from the base plate than is the topmost portion of the resin layer.
