A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor element, leads, and an encapsulation resin covering a portion of each of the leads and the semiconductor element. Each of the leads includes an external connection portion projecting from a side surface of the encapsulation resin. The external connection portion of at least one of the leads has opposite ends in a width-wise direction that extends along the side surface of the encapsulation resin. The external connection portion includes two recesses arranged toward a center in the width-wise direction from the opposite ends. The two recesses extend from a distal surface toward the encapsulation resin. The opposite ends in the width-wise direction define an end connection part. The external connection portion includes a part between the two recesses defining a center connection part.
