  • Patent number: 12581983
    Abstract: Semiconductor module including a semiconductor and including a shaped metal body that is electrically contacted by the semiconductor, for forming a contact surface for an electrical conductor, wherein the shaped metal body is bent or folded. A method is also described for establishing electrical contacting of an electrical conductor on a semiconductor, said method including the steps of: fastening a bent or folded shaped metal body of a constant thickness to the semiconductor by means of a first fastening method and then fastening the electrical conductor to the shaped metal body by means of a second fastening method.
