Provided is a semiconductor module enabling to effectively reduce, with a relatively simple structure, a thermal strain occurring in a bonding section between a semiconductor chip and other conductor members. The semiconductor module is characterized by being provided with: a first wiring layer; a semiconductor element bonded on the first wiring layer via a first bonding layer; a first electrode bonded on the semiconductor element via a second bonding layer; a second electrode connected on the first electrode; and a second wiring layer connected on the second electrode. The semiconductor module is also characterized in that: the width of the second electrode, said width being in the short-side direction, is more than the thickness of the first electrode; and the second electrode is disposed at a position off the center position of the semiconductor element.
