A power module includes a semiconductor device having a first and second arms, and gate driving circuit board. The first arm includes a first extending electrode, a first gate electrode of a first power device extending in a direction different from the first extending electrode, and a first output electrode extending in the different direction from the first gate electrode. The second arm stacked on the first arm includes a second extending electrode extending in the first extending electrode extending direction in an insulating state, a second gate electrode of a second power device, extending in the first gate electrode extending direction, and a second output electrode extending in the first output electrode extending direction with electrical connection thereto. The gate driving circuit board is disposed at the first and second gate electrodes extending side so as to face the semiconductor device.

A power module includes a pair of power devices that are stacked with a plate-shaped output electrode arranged therebetween, and an N-electrode and a P-electrode that are stacked with the pair of power devices arranged therebetween. The output electrode is anisotropic such that the thermal conductivity in a direction orthogonal to the stacking direction is greater than the thermal conductivity in the stacking direction. Also, the output electrode extends in the orthogonal direction from a stacked area where the pair of power devices are stacked. The N-electrode and the P-electrode extend in the orthogonal direction while maintaining an opposing positional relationship.

A connector includes a fitting hole into which a signal line is fitted, a tapered portion formed to lead a tip portion of the signal line to the fitting hole, and a bonded portion for bonding the connector to a control substrate. The tapered portion has a tapered shape on a side where the signal line is inserted. The tapered shape is tilted from a peripheral portion of the tapered portion to the fitting hole in a direction along which the signal line is inserted, with the fitting hole set as a center.

Electrode plates acting as a heat sink are arranged to sandwich a power transistor and a diode. Electrode plates at their surfaces opposite cooling elements at a portion opposite power transistor and diode are formed to be smaller in thickness at a portion adjacent to power transistor and diode substantially at the center than at a periphery. Cooling elements are disposed geometrically along electrode plates to sandwich electrode plates.

A power semiconductor element and a capacitor have their electrodes joined to each other in a module. The power semiconductor element is formed on a semiconductor substrate having first and second main surfaces. A power semiconductor module includes an electrode through which a main current flows, joined to the first main surface, an electrode through which the main current flows, joined to the second main surface, and a resin portion sealing the semiconductor substrate, the capacitor and the electrodes. The capacitor includes electrodes. The electrode of the capacitor and the electrode of the semiconductor element are joined to each other by solder such that surfaces exposed through the resin portion are arranged on one continuous surface on which a cooler can be attached. Therefore, a power semiconductor module can be provided in which the capacitor and the power semiconductor element can effectively be cooled and the surge voltage can be reduced.
