Abstract
A semiconductor module includes an electrically conductive lower contact piece and an electrically conductive upper contact piece spaced apart from one another in a vertical direction. The module further includes a semiconductor chip having a first load connection and a second load connection. The semiconductor chip is electrically conductively connected by the second load connection to the lower contact piece, and electrically conductively connected to the upper contact piece by at least one bonding wire bonded to the first load connection. An explosion protection means is arranged between the first load connection and the upper contact piece and into which each of the bonding wires is embedded over at least 80% or over at least 90% of its length.
