Abstract

Abstract There is described a semiconductor device (1) wherein an auxiliary electrode (12) is connected to a first auxiliary terminal (71) on one plane of a semiconductor piece that is fixed on a support plate (2) and a main electrode (11) is connected to a main terminal (6) and a second auxiliary terminal (72), the terminals (71,72) each comprising a horizontal conductor strip (41,42) and a terminal portion (71,72) extending vertically upwardly from the support plate (2) and being connected to their respective electrode (11,12) by wires (51,52) attached to their conductor strips (41,42) characterised in that the main current is controlled by a voltage applied across the first (71) and second (72) auxiliary terminals, and the wire (54) that connects the main terminal (6) to the second auxiliary terminal (72) is connected to the conductor strip (41) of the main terminal (6) adjacent its upstanding terminal portion (72).
