  • Patent number: 6943445
    Abstract: The present invention provides a semiconductor device which reduces an inductance of wiring for bridge-connecting semiconductor switches and realizes a reduction in size. Within the semiconductor device formed are two controllable bridge-connected semiconductor switches 13a and 13b, an output terminal, positive/negative polarity DC terminals 2 and 3, and an insulating substrate 15a in which conductor layers 12, 17 and 19 having a conductor section and in an inner layer for bridge-connecting the semiconductor switches to the DC terminals on a surface thereof and insulating layers 16 and 18 are alternately laminated. The surface and inner-layer conductor layers 12 and 17 which interpose the insulating layer 16 therebetween are electrically connected by a conductor 20 passing through the insulating layer 16 interposed between the conductor layers 12 and 17.

  • Patent number: 6548933
    Abstract: A linear shape straight angle line is transformed to form U-shape configuration in advance and by sandwiching a stator tooth portion to adjacent slots linear shape two sides are inserted and using a thin plate rod shape chip between both ends of U-shape side of the above stated coil is connected and then the coil is formed to have one winding close circuit. The plural coils are inserted and as stated in above between the both ends of an anti-U-shape side is connected, and a stator coil for forming a predetermined winding turn number is obtained. When an end face of the anti-U-shape side and the thin plate shape chip are overlapped and connected, a plate thickness of a portion in which they are overlapped is reduced by half respectively, and when they are overlapped, it becomes the plate thickness which corresponds to a plate thickness of the above stated straight angle line coil. A length of a coil end portion can be shortened widely.

  • Publication number: 20020180037
    Abstract: A semiconductor device including a positive polarity wiring plate, negative wiring plate, more than one output wiring plate, semiconductor switch element and conductive buffer or “cushion” member is disclosed. The semiconductor switch element and cushion member are compressively interposed between the output wiring plate and positive wiring plate and also between the output wiring plate and negative wiring plate to thereby constitute bridge circuitry. The positive wiring plate, negative wiring plate or output wiring plate is for use as one support body of a pressurization structure. With such an arrangement, it is possible to improve the heat releasability of semiconductor elements while at the same time reducing the inductance of direct current (DC) circuitry to thereby suppress heat generation of the semiconductor elements, thus increasing the reliability relative to temperature cycles.
