Abstract
An electric component arrangement is described, comprising a semiconductor component (1) mounted on a varistor body (2). The varistor body is contact-connected to the semiconductor component for the protection thereof against electrostatic discharges and contains a composite material having as matrix a varistor ceramic and as filler a highly thermally conductive material being different from the varistor ceramic.
Claims19
An electric component arrangement, comprising:
- a housing defining a recess having a surface exposable to light;
- a reflective coating on the surface of the recess;
- a varistor body;
- and
- at least one semiconductor component mounted on the varistor body, the varistor body and the at least one semiconductor component being carried by the housing within the recess;
- wherein the varistor body is contact-connected to the semiconductor component for the protection thereof against electrostatic discharges, and wherein the varistor body contains a composite material having as matrix a varistor ceramic and as filler particles of a thermally conductive material different from the varistor ceramic and distributed in the varistor ceramic.
