A connecting device for the electrically conductive connection of electronic components and a substrate. The connecting device is formed as a film composite formed of at least one insulating film and at least two electrically conductive films disposed on opposite sides of the insulating film. The film composite is formed as a layer construction of a conductive film alternating with an insulating film, wherein at least one conductive film is structured and thus forms conductor tracks. Furthermore, at least one conductive film of a main area of the film composite is made of a first metal and has at least one film section having a layer of a second metal that is thinner in comparison with the thickness of the first layer.

Connecting device for electronic components

A method for internal electrical insulation of a substrate for a power semiconductor module having a framelike insulating housing with a cap and having an insulating substrate. The substrate has conductor tracks and power semiconductor components mounted thereon. The power semiconductor components are connected to connection elements, e.g., further conductor tracks or power semiconductor components, by means of bond connections. The method is characterized by the following steps: a) forming the substrate; b) coating the substrate with a viscous dielectric insulation compound in a casting process or immersion process; c) initiating the cross-linking of the insulation compound; d) with the substrate in a suspended position, permitting excess insulation compound to drip off, and securely enveloping the bond connections with insulation compound; and e) placing the substrate in the housing.

Method for internal electrical insulation of a substrate for a power semiconductor module

A power semiconductor module is presented. The power semiconductor module has a substrate, a composite film, and a power semiconductor component between the substrate and the composite film. The composite film has a thin circuit-structured logic metal layer and a thick circuit-structured power metal layer and between them a thin electrically insulating plastic film. The composite film includes contact nubs, which provide bonding to the power semiconductor component. Feedthrough holes are provided between the logic metal layer and the power metal layer. The plastic film in the region of the respective through-plated hole includes a recess in a region that is free of the logic metal layer. A segment of a flexible thin wire extends through the free region of the logic metal layer and through the recess in the plastic film and is bonded to the logic metal layer and the power metal layer by means of bonding sites.
