Abstract
In the semiconductor module according to the present invention, a conducting member which is used to electrically connect a semiconductor element arranged on a substrate or a bus bar with another electronic component is provided with a structure having flexibility capable of, in a junction with the semiconductor element, reducing the thermal stress due to difference in a coefficient of linear expansion between the conducting member and the semiconductor element, and absorbing dimensional error in objects to be connected. Therefore, the semiconductor module achieves both increased current capacity of the semiconductor device and improved reliability of the semiconductor module.
