Abstract
A semiconductor switching arrangement contains at least two half-bridge modules that each have an AC voltage connection, a positive DC voltage busbar, a negative DC voltage busbar, and at least one AC voltage busbar. The AC voltage connections are electrically interconnected by the AC voltage busbar. The aim is to improve the current distribution to the half-bridge modules arranged electrically in parallel. To this end, at least in the region of the AC voltage connections, the positive DC voltage busbar and the negative DC voltage busbar extend over an area containing the AC voltage busbar. Two of the at least two half-bridge modules are arranged adjacently such that the AC voltage surfaces of the two of the at least two half-bridge modules are adjacently arranged in relation to each other. Ideally a converter can contain at least one such semiconductor switching arrangement.
