Abstract
A semiconductor module includes a semiconductor chip having a switching function, a resin portion that covers the chip, terminals, and a heat dissipation portion. The resin portion includes first and second surfaces, which are opposed to each other and expand generally parallel to an imaginary plane; and a substrate is located on a first surface-side of the resin portion. The terminals project from the resin portion in a direction of the imaginary plane and are soldered onto the substrate. The heat dissipation portion is disposed on a second surface-side of the resin portion to release heat generated in the chip. One of the terminals is connected to the heat dissipation portion such that heat is transmitted from the one of the terminals to the heat dissipation portion.
