A control module for a vehicle with at least one electric motor and a transmission is provided. The control module has a housing for accommodating a transmission control electronics, a converter electronics for controlling an electric motor, and a cooling body. The housing includes a housing upper part and a housing lower part. The cooling body is arranged between the housing upper part and the housing lower part in such a way that the cooling body forms a part of the housing, that the housing lower part and the cooling body form a media-tight first cavity for accommodating the converter electronics. The converter electronics is thermally conductively connected to the cooling body, and the housing upper part and the cooling body form a media-tight second cavity for accommodating the transmission control electronics. The transmission control electronics is thermally conductively connected to the cooling body.

Compact control module for a vehicle with at least one electric motor and a transmission

The disclosure provides an electronic control apparatus including a printed circuit board with a first surface side and a second surface side and with at least one electronic component that is arranged on at least one of the surface sides of the printed circuit board. At least one heat sink is arranged on the printed circuit board on the opposite surface side from the electronic component for the purpose of heat dissipation. The printed circuit board with the electronic component and the heat sink are surrounded by a casing made from a thermosetting plastic material such that at least one outer side of the heat sink is free of thermosetting plastic material.
