Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce wiring inductance and stabilize characteristics of a semiconductor device by electrically connecting the other region of one conducting layer and an outer terminal, and by using the other conducting layer positioned as the lower layer of the one conducting layer. SOLUTION: A semiconductor element 101 is fixed on, e.g. a metallic layer 103a of the uppermost part of a retaining member having two or more conducting layers (metallic layers 103a, 103b, 103c) which are insulated via insulating region layers 102. A wire 105, i.e., a gate of the semiconductor element 101 can be electrically connected with a terminal 109 for external signal input by connecting an arbitrary location of the metallic layer 103c and the terminal 109 for external signal input. For this reason, a leading-out portion of the terminal 109 for external signal input on the retaining member can be arranged on an arbitrary portion, which is different from a connecting part of the wire 105 in the metallic layer 103a. Thereby the wiring length of the terminal for external signal input can be reduced, and inductance of the terminal for external signal input can be reduced.

However, in the above-described method, the shapes of the wiring terminals for inputting and outputting the current and the wiring terminals for inputting the current control signal are complicated, so that the member cost is increased and the volume of the wiring terminal is increased. However, there are problems such as the inability to reduce the size of the device and the inaccuracy of the terminal shape. A wiring having a complicated shape has a large self-inductance, causing a current to jump when the semiconductor device is turned off, causing an increase in loss and destruction of elements.
