Abstract
A semiconductor module includes a semiconductor element, a substrate, and a bond connector designed as a gate resistor, shunt, resistor in an RC filter or fuse. The bond connector includes a core made of a first metal material and a jacket which is designed to envelope the core and made from a second metal material that is different from the first metal material, with the first metal material having an electrical conductivity which is lower than an electrical conductivity of the second metal material. At least one of the semiconductor element and the substrate is connected to the bond connector.
