| 20100302741 | POWER SEMICONDUCTOR MODULE FEATURING RESILIENTLY SUPPORTED SUBSTRATES AND METHOD FOR FABRICATING A POWER SEMICONDUCTOR MODULE - The invention relates to a power semiconductor module including a module housing and at least one substrate populated with at least one power semiconductor chip. The module housing has a bottom side and a top side spaced away from the bottom side in a positive vertical direction. In addition, the substrate has a bottom side facing away from an interior of the module housing. The substrate is arranged in an opening of the module housing configured in its bottom side and attached to the module housing by a resilient bonding agent for freedom of movement of the substrate parallel to the vertical direction in relation to the module housing. In the non-mounted condition of the power semiconductor module, the substrate assumes a resting position in relation to the module housing. To deflect the substrate from the resting position parallel to the vertical direction, a deflection force of 0.1 N to 100 N per mm is applied. | 12-02-2010 |
| 20110053319 | Method for Fabricating a Circuit Substrate Assembly and a Power Electronics Module Comprising an Anchoring Structure for Producing a Changing Temperature-Stable Solder Bond - A power semiconductor module is fabricated by providing a circuit substrate with a metal surface and an insulating substrate comprising an insulation carrier featuring a bottom side provided with a bottom metallization layer. An anchoring structure is provided comprising a plurality of oblong pillars each featuring a first end facing away from the insulation carrier, at least a subset of the pillars being distributed over the anchoring structure in its entirety, it applying for each of the pillars of the subset that from a sidewall thereof no or a maximum of three elongated bonding webs each extend to a sidewall of another pillar where they are bonded thereto. The anchoring structure is positioned between the insulation carrier and metal surface, after which the metal surface is soldered to the bottom metallization layer and anchoring structure by means of a solder packing all interstices between the metal surface and bottom metallization layer with the solder. | 03-03-2011 |
