Semiconductor device configuring upper and lower arms including auxiliary terminals

Abstract

In a semiconductor device, a first semiconductor chip and a second semiconductor chip are aligned in a direction orthogonal to a plate thickness direction of the first semiconductor chip. A pair of first heat sinks is disposed on opposite sides of the first semiconductor chip in the first direction, and a pair of second heat sinks disposed on opposite sides of the second semiconductor chip in the first direction. The semiconductor chips and the heat sinks are sealed in a resin molded body. A plurality of main terminals are aligned in the second direction and project from a same side surface of a resin molded body. The main terminals includes a positive electrode terminal, a negative electrode terminal, an output terminal, and an auxiliary terminal. The first relay members are disposed in the resin molded body, and electrically connecting the main terminals and the corresponding heat sinks.
