Assignee: MITSUBISHI ELECTRIC CORPORATION
Field: Semiconductors (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H  B | IPC H

Claim 8:
9. A semiconductor module comprising:
a first lead;
a semiconductor element; and
a sealing material configured to seal at least a part of the first lead and the semiconductor element,
wherein the first lead includes a die stage,
wherein the semiconductor element is bonded onto an upper side surface of the die stage,
wherein the sealing material on a lower side of the die stage is thinner than the sealing material on an upper side of the semiconductor element,
wherein a bent portion configured to form a step with respect to vertical direction in the first lead is provided in a region sealed with the sealing material in the first lead,
wherein a side on which the die stage is present of the step is positioned below a side on which the die stage is not present of the step due to the step, and
wherein the bent portion of the first lead includes a shape memory alloy deformable from one shape to another upon exceeding a transformation point temperature.
