Abstract
A semiconductor device for converting DC input power to AC output power includes a package having a rectangular shape with four side edges and containing a plurality of semiconductor chips therein. Two pairs of positive and negative terminals of DC input terminals are situated on the side edges to face to each other such that the same polar terminals in the positive and negative terminals face to each other. AC output terminals and control terminals are arranged on the side edges where the DC input terminals are not formed.
Claims7
A semiconductor device for converting DC input power to AC output power, comprising:
- a package having a rectangular shape and an upper surface thereon, said package including four side edge portions on a periphery of the upper surface with the rectangular shape and containing a plurality of semiconductor chips therein, said four side edge portions being formed of a first pair of parallel side edge portions and a second pair of parallel side edge portions perpendicular to the first pair of the side edge portions,
- DC input terminals formed of two pairs of positive and negative terminals, each pair formed of one positive terminal and one negative terminal being situated on each side edge portion of the first pair of the parallel side edge portions, respectively;
- such that the positive terminals on the respective side edge portions directly face to each other and the negative terminals on the respective side edge portions directly face to each other, and
- AC output terminals and control terminals arranged on the side edge portions in said second pair of the parallel side edge portions.
