    Abstract: A semiconductor arrangement includes at least two switching devices of a first type electrically coupled in parallel between a first terminal and a second terminal, and at least two switching devices of a second type electrically coupled in parallel between the second terminal and a third terminal. The switching devices of the first type and the switching devices of the second type are arranged in a power semiconductor module that has first and second longitudinal sides and first and second narrow sides. The switching devices of the first type and the switching devices of the second type are arranged next to each other in at least one row extending in a first horizontal direction that is parallel to the first and second longitudinal sides, such that within each of the at least one rows no more than two switching devices of the same type are arranged in direct succession.

    Abstract: A semiconductor module arrangement includes a housing and at least one pair of semiconductor substrates arranged inside the housing. Each pair of semiconductor substrates includes first and second semiconductor substrates. The first semiconductor substrate includes a first dielectric insulation layer arranged between a first metallization layer and a third metallization layer, and a second dielectric insulation layer arranged between the third metallization layer and a second metallization layer. The second semiconductor substrate includes a first dielectric insulation layer arranged between a first metallization layer and a third metallization layer, and a second dielectric insulation layer arranged between the third metallization layer and a second metallization layer. The third metallization layer of the first semiconductor substrate is electrically coupled to a first electrical potential, and the third metallization layer of the second semiconductor substrate is electrically coupled to a second electrical potential that is opposite to the first electrical potential.

    Abstract: A drive circuit includes a first output node for connection to the control electrode of the semiconductor switch, a voltage supply circuit, and a first switching stage connected to the voltage supply and a second switching stage connected to the voltage supply. A first resistor network is connected between the first switching stage and the first output node. A second resistor network is connected between the second switching stage and the first output node. A control logic is designed to generate control signals for the guiding of the first switching stage and the second switching stage in such a way that in a first operating mode of the semiconductor switch the semiconductor switch is driven only via the first resistor network, and in a second operating mode of the semiconductor switch the semiconductor switch is driven only via the second resistor network or both resistor networks.

    Abstract: A semiconductor module arrangement includes a housing, a first semiconductor substrate arranged inside the housing, a second semiconductor substrate arranged inside the housing, a first plurality of controllable semiconductor elements, and a second plurality of controllable semiconductor elements. During operation of the semiconductor module arrangement, each controllable semiconductor element of the first plurality of controllable semiconductor elements generates switching losses and conduction losses, the switching losses being greater than the conduction losses. Further during operation of the semiconductor module arrangement, each controllable semiconductor element of the second plurality of controllable semiconductor elements generates switching losses and conduction losses, the conduction losses being greater than the switching losses. At least a first sub-group of the first plurality of controllable semiconductor elements is arranged on the first semiconductor substrate, and at least a first sub-group of the second plurality of controllable semiconductor elements is arranged on the second semiconductor substrate.
