An electric device includes: a first electric element; a second electric element capable of flowing large current therethrough so that heat is generated in the second electric element; a heat sink; and a first wiring board and a second wiring board, which are disposed on one side of the heat sink. The large current in the second electric element is larger than that in the first electric element. The first wiring board and the second wiring board are separated each other. The first electric element is disposed on the first wiring board, and the second electric element is disposed on the second wiring board.

Semiconductor device

In an electronic unit with a substrate, a control circuit is mounted on the substrate and is configured to execute an operation related to a load. A package encapsulates the control circuit and the substrate. The package has sides around a periphery of the substrate. At least one input terminal for input of a signal externally sent to the electronic unit is disposed on at least one of the plurality of surfaces. At least one output terminal for output of a control signal for controlling the load is disposed on at least another one of the plurality of surfaces. At least one check terminal for input/output of a signal for checking at least the control circuit is disposed on at least another one of the plurality of surfaces.

Electronic unit with a substrate where an electronic circuit is fabricated

In order to protect semiconductor switching-devices employed in an H bridge circuit against an over-voltage without using a special protection circuit, a control circuit outputs a control signal to a driving circuit for driving the H bridge circuit in order to turn off FETs serving as the semiconductor switching-devices when an over-voltage detection circuit detects the over-voltage applied to the H bridge circuit.

Driving apparatus of H bridge circuit and protection method of the same

A composite integrated circuit is formed by being molded with a mold resin, including a seat member of a lead frame, a substrate attached on the seat member of the lead frame, a heater element, and a temperature-restricted element. Here, the heater element and the temperature-restricted element are mounted on the substrate. The seat member of the lead frame includes a hollow member that is located under an intermediate area between the heater element and the temperature-restricted element.

Composite integrated circuit device having restricted heat conduction

An IC which integrates an EPROM is disposed on a circuit board. Also, a pad for supplying a writing voltage to the EPROM and a voltage supplying circuit, for supplying a power voltage to power terminals of the IC, which includes a first transistor and a second transistor, are disposed on the circuit board. When the pad is supplied with a high voltage for writing the data in the EPROM, the first transistor is on, the second transistor is off, and the voltage is supplied to the EPROM as the writing voltage. When data are read from the EPROM after the circuit board is packaged, because the pad is not supplied with any voltage, the first transistor is off, the second transistor is on, and a reading voltage is supplied to the EPROM via the outer terminal.
