Abstract
The provided power semiconductor module is configured to reduce the wiring inductance and save space on the substrate by establishing a multi-parallel connection between multiple power semiconductor chips. It consists of a first and second insulated substrates with a plurality of semiconductor switching elements positioned on one and facing the other. There are also first and second spacer conductors positioned between the plurality of semiconductor switching elements and the second insulated substrate. Inter-spacer-conductor wiring parts are connected with the plurality of second spacer conductors. Each of the plurality of semiconductor switching elements has a first electrode connected to a conductor layer on the first substrate, a second electrode connected to a conductor on the second substrate via the first spacer conductors, and a control electrode connected to each other through the second spacer conductors and the inter-spacer-conductor wiring parts which are positioned a prescribed distance from the second conductor layer.
