Abstract
A connecting device for contacting a semiconductor component to at least one further component, the connecting device comprising at least one metal connecting strip extending in a longitudinal direction and having a contact region for mounting on a terminal region of the semiconductor component. In order to achieve a contacting system that can be manufactured inexpensively but can nevertheless carry high current densities, a connecting device is proposed whose contact region is embodied in structured fashion and flexibly with respect to stresses that extend in a terminal plane parallel to the terminal region.
