A power semiconductor module is provided which is capable of keeping low the degrees of increases in temperatures of wide bandgap semiconductor elements, reducing the degree of increase in chip's total surface area of the wide bandgap semiconductor elements, and being fabricated at low costs, when Si semiconductor elements and the wide bandgap semiconductor elements are placed within one and the same power semiconductor module. The Si semiconductor elements are placed in a central region of the power semiconductor module, and the wide bandgap semiconductor elements are placed on opposite sides relative to the central region or in edge regions surrounding the central region.
