Semiconductor module

A semiconductor module comprising:

• a substrate;
• a bare chip including a plurality of electrodes disposed on an upper surface thereof and an electrode disposed on a lower surface thereof, the electrode on the lower surface being mounted on the substrate;
• and
• a conductor including a first joining portion that is joined to a control signal electrode of the electrodes disposed on the upper surface of the bare chip, a second joining portion that is joined to a control signal pattern on the substrate, and a connecting portion that electrically connects the first joining portion and the second joining portion, wherein the conductor is a metal plate having a first end portion, a second end portion, and a central portion between the first end portion and the second end portion, the metal plate forming the first joining portion with the first end portion, forming the second joining portion with the second end portion, and forming the connecting portion with the central portion, wherein the first joining portion, the connecting portion and the second joining portion of the metal plate form a U-shape, wherein
• the connecting portion is provided with an insulating member,
• a plurality of signal electrodes that includes the control signal electrode is provided for the one bare chip,
• the conductor is a plurality of conductors that are disposed respectively on the plurality of the signal electrodes,
• the connecting portions of the plurality of conductors are fixed by the single insulating member, and
• the insulating member and the substrate are in surface contact with each other.
