Abstract
A system includes: an inverter configured to convert DC power from a battery to AC power to drive a motor, wherein the inverter includes: a power module including: a first phase switch including one or more first phase power switches on a first side of a substrate; and a second phase switch including one or more second phase power switches on a second side of the substrate opposite to the first side.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- an inverter configured to convert DC power from a battery to AC power to drive a motor, wherein the inverter includes:
- a power module including:
- a first phase switch including one or more first phase power switches on a first side of a substrate;
- and
- a second phase switch including one or more second phase power switches on a second side of the substrate opposite to the first side,
- wherein the first phase switch and the second phase switch are arranged in a 180-degree orientation relative to each other.
3 more elements
A system comprising:
- a power module for an inverter, the power module including:
- a first phase switch including one or more first phase power switches on a first side of a substrate;
- and
- a second phase switch including one or more second phase power switches on a second side of the substrate facing away from the first side.
1 more element
A system comprising:
- a power module for an inverter, the power module including:
- a first phase switch extending along a first plane, the first phase switch configured to control a flow of current between a first tab and a second tab;
- and
- a second phase switch extending along a second plane, the second phase switch configured to control a flow of current between a third tab and the second tab,
- wherein the first phase switch is stacked on the second phase switch so that a normal vector from the first plane intersects the second plane.
