1. A semiconductor module comprising:
a switching element formed of a wide bandgap semiconductor; and only one free wheel diode connected in antiparallel with said switching element, wherein said only one free wheel diode is a diode made of silicon and has negative temperature characteristics so that when a large inrush current flows the forward voltage does not increase and the semiconductor module does not enter a positive feedback state. |
