  • Patent number: 6380622
    Abstract: A pressed-contact type semiconductor device in which a main electrode surface of a semiconductor element is contacted with an electrode plate by a pressed-contact, which can reduce both an electric resistance and a thermal resistance between the main electrode surface of the semiconductor element and the electrode plate. The pressed-contact type semiconductor device (100) is provided with a semiconductor element (1) having electrode surfaces, a pair of electrode plates (2) contacted with the electrode surfaces by the pressed-contact, a pair of insulating plates (3) contacted with the outer side of the pair of the electrode plates by the pressed-contact, and a pair of radiating plates (4) contacted with the outer side of the pair of the insulating plates by the pressed-contact. A contact intermediary member (5), which is made up of particle member having at least thermal conductivity and electric conductivity, is intercalated between the semiconductor element and the electrode plate.
