In a semiconductor module, first and second connection terminals and a control terminal are electrically connected to a semiconductor chip. The second connection terminal extends in a first direction in a resin molded part and projects from a predetermined surface of the resin molded part. An internal terminal of the first connection terminal extends in the resin molded part along the first direction and overlaps with the second connection terminal with a predetermined space therebetween in a second direction, and is exposed from an opening portion of the resin molded part. An external terminal of the first connection terminal is connected to the internal terminal at the opening portion and projects outside the resin molded part. The first connection terminal includes a tie bar remaining portion extending from the internal terminal in a direction that intersects the first direction and the second direction.

Abstract:
A semiconductor module is configured such that heat radiation substrates are connected to lead frames and semiconductor chips are directly connected to the lead frames, so that the semiconductor chips are not connected to the lead frames through conductive portions of the heat radiation substrates. Therefore, the conductive portions can have a solid shape without being divided. As such, an occurrence of curving of the heat radiation substrates is suppressed when a temperature is reduced from a high temperature to a room temperature after resin-sealing at the high temperature or the like. Therefore, connection between the semiconductor chip and the lead frames and connection between the lead frames and the heat radiation substrates enhance.
