Abstract: The present application provides a semiconductor module and a power conversion device wherein wiring inductance is reduced. The semiconductor module is characterized by including a semiconductor element, a first terminal on which the semiconductor element is mounted, a second terminal disposed in a periphery of the semiconductor element and having a multiple of wiring portions, and a multiple of connection lines extending in multiple directions from an upper face of the semiconductor element and connected to each of the multiple of wiring portions of the second terminal, wherein a free region is provided among the multiple of wiring portions, and the multiple of connection lines and the multiple of wiring portions forming current paths with each of the multiple of connection lines are of the same potential.

Abstract: In this semiconductor device, a positioning protrusion is formed at a side surface of a sealing resin from which one end of a main electrode wire protrudes. Thus, the outer size of the sealing resin can be reduced as compared to a case where a positioning protrusion is formed at the bottom of the sealing resin. In addition, a thickness regulating protrusion is provided with a space from solder. Thus, it is possible to prevent interface separation or crack that would occur starting from a contact part between the thickness regulating protrusion and the solder, whereby the life of a joining part between a semiconductor module and a cooler can be ensured. Accordingly, a semiconductor device having enhanced heat dissipation property and reliability is obtained without increase in the outer size of the semiconductor module.
