SEMICONDUCTOR POWER MODULE AND POWER CONVERSION APPARATUS USING THE SAME

摘要

A semiconductor power module with which it is possible to suppress the influence of noise given from a main terminal to a control terminal is provided. At least any one of main terminals (positive electrode terminal, negative electrode terminal, alternating current terminal) is so configured that the main terminal includes two parts extended in a common direction. The two parts are, for example, formed of a single component having such as a shape that the component is bifurcated from the outside toward the inside of the semiconductor power module or two different components. The two parts are so structured that the parts are extended in a common direction. Control terminals (gate signal terminal and emitter signal terminal) are so arranged that a laminated portion of the control terminals is sandwiched between one and the other of the two parts to configure the semiconductor power module.
