Claim 0:
1. A semiconductor arrangement, comprising:
a plurality of first diodes;
a plurality of second diodes;
at least two switching devices of a first type electrically coupled in parallel between a first terminal and a second terminal; and
at least two switching devices of a second type electrically coupled in parallel between the second terminal and a third terminal,
wherein one of the plurality of first diodes is electrically coupled in parallel to each of the at least two switching devices of the first type,
wherein one of the plurality of second diodes is electrically coupled in parallel to each of the at least two switching devices of the second type,
wherein the at least two switching devices of the first type and the at least two switching devices of the second type are arranged in a power semiconductor module, the power semiconductor module comprising first and second longitudinal sides and first and second narrow sides,
wherein the at least two switching devices of the first type and the plurality of first diodes are all arranged alternatingly in one row along the first longitudinal side,
wherein the at least two switching devices of the second type and the plurality of second diodes are all arranged alternatingly in another row along the second longitudinal side,
wherein the semiconductor arrangement has an axis of symmetry that extends perpendicular to the first and second narrow sides.
