A semiconductor device includes: an insulating substrate having an upper surface on which a semiconductor element is mounted; a base plate joined to a lower surface of the insulating substrate; a case member that surrounds the insulating substrate and that is in contact with a surface of the base plate to which the insulating substrate is joined; a sealing resin provided in a region surrounded by the base plate and the case member; a cover member facing a surface of the sealing resin and fixed to the case member; and a holding plate, a lower surface of the holding plate and a portion of a side surface of the holding plate being in close contact with the surface of the sealing resin, an upper surface of the holding plate being fixed to and protruding from a surface of the cover member facing the surface of the sealing resin.

Semiconductor device and method for manufacturing same

The power module includes: an insulating substrate having an upper surface on which a semiconductor element is mounted; a base plate joined to a lower surface of the insulating substrate; a case member surrounding the insulating substrate and adhered to the base plate; a sealing resin provided in a region surrounded by the base plate and the case member, so as to seal the insulating substrate; and a holding plate projecting from an inner wall of the case member to above an outer peripheral portion of the insulating substrate, the holding plate being fixed to the inner wall, the holding plate being in contact with the sealing resin.

Power module

A power semiconductor device including an insulating substrate having a metal layer formed on an upper surface thereof, a semiconductor element and a main electrode bonded to the metal layer, a metal wire connecting the metal layer with the semiconductor element, a metal member bonded to a lower surface side of the insulating substrate, a case member surrounding the insulating substrate and being in contact with a surface of the metal member bonded to the insulating substrate, and a sealing resin which fills a region surrounded by the metal member and the case member and has a resin strength of 0.12 MPa or higher at room temperature, a microcrystallization temperature of &#x2212;55&#xb0; C. or lower, and a needle penetration of 30 to 50 after storage at 175&#xb0; C. for 1000 hours and seals the insulating substrate, the metal layer, the semiconductor element, the metal wire, and the main electrode.

Power semiconductor device

An insulated circuit board includes an insulated substrate, a first electrode, and a second electrode. A thin portion is formed in a corner portion, the corner portion being a region occupying, with regard to directions along outer edges from a vertex of at least one of the first and second electrodes in plan view, a portion of a length of the outer edges, and the thin portion has a thickness smaller than that of a region other than the thin portion. The thin portion in at least one of the first and second electrodes has a planar shape surrounded by first and second sides orthogonal to each other as portions of the outer edges from the vertex, and a curved portion away from the vertex of the first and second sides.
