Abstract:
A configuration is realized that enables ON/OFF operations to be performed stably and is unlikely to increase the switching time when driving an in-vehicle semiconductor switching device. An in-vehicle semiconductor switching device is turned ON and OFF by an ON signal and an OFF signal that are output from an in-vehicle driving circuit, and is switched between an ON state and an OFF state, at a position between a first conducting path and a second conducting path. Only some of a plurality of second terminals, which are electrically connected to a second semiconductor portion of a semiconductor switching element, are coupled to the second conducting path, and at least one of the remaining second terminals is coupled to a driving circuit-side conducting path (a conducting path electrically connected to the driving circuit.

Claim (Index 1):
An in-vehicle semiconductor switching device that is turned ON and OFF by an ON signal and an OFF signal that is output from an in-vehicle driving circuit, and is switched between an ON state and an OFF state, at a position between a first conducting path and a second conducting path, the semiconductor switching device comprising:\n a semiconductor switching element comprising a first semiconductor portion made of a semiconductor material, a second semiconductor portion arranged at a position different from the position of the first semiconductor portion and made of a semiconductor material, and an input portion to which the ON signal and the OFF signal are input from the driving circuit, wherein the semiconductor switching element enters the ON state if the ON signal is input to the input portion, and enters the OFF state if the OFF signal is input to the input portion; at least one first terminal electrically connected to the first semiconductor portion; a plurality of second terminals electrically connected to the second semiconductor portion; and at least one third terminal electrically connected to the input portion, wherein the first terminal is connected to the first conducting path, and only some of the plurality of second terminals are coupled to the second conducting path, and at least one of the remaining second terminals is coupled to a driving circuit-side conducting path electrically connected to the driving circuit.
