Abstract
One of the aspects of the present invention is to provide a semiconductor module, which includes at least one semiconductor device including a semiconductor element molded with a resin package having a main surface and a side surface, and a plurality of terminals extending from the side surface and being bent towards a direction away from the main surface. It also includes a box-shaped hollow casing including a base member having a plurality of through-holes and an opening opposing to the base member, for receiving the semiconductor device with the terminals of the semiconductor device inserted into the through-holes. Further, the semiconductor module includes an insulating resin member filling up a gap defined between the semiconductor device and the casing so as to cover portions of the terminals at the side surface of the resin package of the semiconductor device.
