A dielectric isolation type semiconductor device includes a dielectric
isolation type substrate in which a support substrate, an embedded
dielectric layer, and a first conductive type semiconductor substrate of
a low impurity concentration are laminated one over another. The
semiconductor substrate includes a first semiconductor region of a first
conductive type having a high impurity concentration, a second
semiconductor region of a second conductive type having a high impurity
concentration arranged so as to surround the first semiconductor region,
a first main electrode joined to a surface of the first semiconductor
region, and a second main electrode joined to a surface of the second
semiconductor region. A first dielectric portion is arranged adjacent the
embedded dielectric layer so as to surround a region of the support
substrate superposed on the first semiconductor region in a direction of
lamination thereof, and a wire connected with the first main electrode.
