Power semiconductor device comprising a housing, and method for producing a power semiconductor device

A method for producing a power semiconductor device, comprising the steps of:

• a) providing a power semiconductor device precursor product comprising a power semiconductor component, comprising a housing having a housing opening, comprising a pin element which is arranged within the housing and passes through the housing opening and has a thread at least outside the housing, comprising an elastic sealing device which is arranged between a housing opening wall of the housing and the pin element, wherein the housing opening wall delimits the housing opening and encircles the pin element, and comprising an electrically conductive sleeve which forms an electrical connection element of the power semiconductor device, wherein the pin element runs through the sleeve and through a sealing device opening of the elastic sealing device, wherein a first sealing element of the sealing device is arranged between the sleeve and the housing opening wall and a second sealing element of the elastic sealing device is arranged between the sleeve and the pin element, wherein the elastic sealing device is not connected in a materially bonded manner to the sleeve, to the housing opening wall or to the pin element and the elastic sealing device seals off the housing opening wall from the sleeve and seals off the sleeve from the pin element,
• b) arranging a liquid or gelatinous uncrosslinked potting compound on the elastic sealing device, wherein the uncrosslinked potting compound is arranged between the sleeve and the housing opening wall and between the sleeve and the pin element, wherein the uncrosslinked potting compound is in mechanical contact with the sleeve, with the housing opening wall and with the pin element, and
• c) crosslinking the uncrosslinked potting compound, as a result of which a crosslinked potting compound is formed, which seals off the housing opening wall from the sleeve and seals off the sleeve from the pin element.
