Abstract: A power conversion device includes a power converter including a semiconductor module, to convert input power and output the converted power, and a capacitor electrically connected to the semiconductor module. The capacitor includes a capacitor-side terminal surface on which a capacitor-side terminal is arranged, and the capacitor-side terminal surface faces a module-side terminal surface of the semiconductor module.

Abstract: In each of a plurality of semiconductor element groups of a power converter, a second semiconductor switching element and a third semiconductor switching element are shifted from each other in a second direction such that at least a portion of fins with which the second semiconductor switching element overlaps as viewed in a direction orthogonal to surfaces of coolers is different from fins with which the third semiconductor switching element overlaps as viewed in the direction orthogonal to the surfaces of the coolers.
