Noise resistant semiconductor power module

摘要

In a circuit board having four-layered conductive pattern on which a control circuit is arranged, wiring sub-patterns 133a in the first layer are divided into four areas A1-A3 and A8, for respective sets of circuit parts having same power potentials. Respective sub-patterns belonging to the areas A1-A3 are partially or fully surrounded by wiring sub-patterns PEa1 PEa3 connected to negative power potentials of circuit parts belonging to respective areas, respectively. Similarly, at least part of a wiring patten Pa2 for transmitting an input signal to a semiconductor active element is surrounded by a wiring pattern PEa4. Penetration of electric noises to the wiring patterns for the control circuit, in particular to the wiring pattern for transmitting the input signal to semiconductor element, is decreased to thereby prevent misoperation due to electric noises.
