Abstract
A plug-in type power module includes a power unit and a heat-transfer unit vertically disposed on the power unit and extending outwardly away from two sides of the power unit. A first ceramic layer is disposed between the power unit and the heat-transfer unit. Therefore, heat generated by the power unit can be transferred from the first ceramic layer to the heat-transfer unit to increase the speed of heat dissipation. A subsystem having the plug-in type power module is also provided.
Claims4
A plug-in type power module, comprising:
- a power unit;
- and
- a heat-transfer unit vertically disposed on the power unit and extending outwardly away from two sides of the power unit, and a first ceramic layer provided between the power unit and the heat-transfer unit and configured for transferring heat generated by the power unit to the heat-transfer unit to increase the speed of heat dissipation,
- wherein the power unit further includes:
- a portion of a second interconnect provided on the first ceramic layer, at least one chip provided on the portion of the second interconnect and electrically connected with the second interconnect to allow signal transmission to be performed therebetween;
- a first molding compound provided on the first ceramic layer and around the chip to fix the chip in place, and a second ceramic layer and a portion of a second interconnect provided on the first ceramic layer, the chip and the first molding compound;
- a second molding compound provided on the second ceramic layer and between the portion of the second interconnect and covering the second ceramic layer;
- a third ceramic layer provided on the portion of the second interconnect, and the second molding compound and the second ceramic layer being drilled and I/O contacts being fabricated;
- and
- a third molding compound provided underneath the I/O contacts and at two sides of the power unit and the heat-transfer unit to protect the power unit and the heat-transfer unit.
