Patent ID: 8472949

Claim:
A semiconductor assembly comprising: a first semiconductor and a second semiconductor, each having a first main connection and a second main connection arranged on opposite sides, and a carrier having a patterned metallization with a first section spaced apart from a second section; the first main connection of the first semiconductor is arranged at a side of the first semiconductor facing away from the carrier; the first main connection of the second semiconductor is arranged at a side of the second semiconductor facing away from the carrier; the first semiconductor comprises a first controllable semiconductor switch; the second semiconductor comprises a second controllable semiconductor switch; the first controllable semiconductor switch and the second controllable semiconductor switch are electrically connected in series; the first semiconductor is electrically connected to the first section by its second main connection, and the second semiconductor is electrically connected to the second section by its second main connection; the first main connection of the first semiconductor forms a first circuit node that is electrically connected between the first controllable semiconductor switch and the second controllable semiconductor switch; and the first main connection of the second semiconductor forms a second circuit node that is electrically connected between the first controllable semiconductor switch and the second controllable semiconductor switch.
