1. A semiconductor device comprising:

  • a gate electrode layer;

    a gate insulating film over the gate electrode layer;

    a first electrode layer and a second electrode layer whose end portions overlap with the gate electrode layer, over the gate insulating film;

    a first wiring layer over the first electrode layer;

    a second wiring layer over the second electrode layer; and

    an oxide semiconductor layer over the gate electrode layer,wherein the first electrode layer extends beyond an end portion of the first wiring layer,wherein the second electrode layer extends beyond an end portion of the second wiring layer,wherein the oxide semiconductor layer is electrically connected to a side face and a top face of the first electrode layer and a side face and a top face of the second electrode layer,wherein the gate insulating film over the gate electrode layer has a region in contact with the oxide semiconductor layer between a region in contact with the first electrode layer and a region in contact with the second electrode layer,wherein the oxide semiconductor layer is in contact with a side face and a top face of the first wiring layer and a side face and a top face of the second wiring layer, andwherein the oxide semiconductor layer is in contact with the side face and the top face of the first electrode layer and the side face and the top face of the second electrode layer.
