A power semiconductor device package utilizes integral fluid conducting micro-channels, one or more inlet ports for supplying liquid coolant to the micro-channels, and one or more outlet ports for exhausting coolant that has passed through the micro-channels. The semiconductor device is mounted on a single or multi-layer circuit board having electrical and fluid interconnect features that mate with the electrical terminals and inlet and outlet ports of the device to define a self-contained and self-sealed micro-channel heat exchanger.

The ignition coil driver module of the present invention includes a control integrated circuit and a high current load driver integrated circuit housed within a common package such as a TO-247 or TO-264 package. The control integrated circuit is formed of a semiconductor material manufactured in accordance with a standard low-voltage integrated circuit processing technology and is responsive to a control signal input to provide a low voltage drive signal. The high current load driver integrated circuit is formed of a semiconductor material manufactured in accordance with a high-voltage integrated circuit processing technology and is responsive to the low voltage drive signal to energize the high current load. A current limit function is further provided for limiting the load current to a predetermined level.

Control circuitry for a multi-channel audio system is disclosed which includes left and right signal processing channels and a DC control section. Each processing channel includes balance and volume sections which are connected with the DC control circuitry and controlled from respective balance and volume potentiometers connected with the DC control section. Each channel further includes a tone control section and more specifically treble and bass sections connected with the DC control circuitry and controlled from a tone potentiometer. The response of the bass section is also controlled as a function of the setting of the volume potentiometer to achieve a loudness function. The volume control circuitry is designed to produce a linear relationship between the DC control voltage and signal attenuation as measured in decibels. Current steering circuitry is employed in both amplitude and tone control.

A circuit for generating a center tuned pulse for stopping the operation of a signal seeking FM receiver includes means for developing a bias current which is added to the output currents of the quadrature detector of the receiver. A stopping pulse is generated whenever the difference between the output currents is less than the bias current and a 10.7 mHz. signal is present in the IF amplifier.

An audio processor is disclosed which includes circuitry for modifying pure left and right audio signals by blending the left audio signal with the right audio signal as a function of frequency and for rolling off the higher frequencies of the blended signal. The processor further includes circuitry for selecting complementary portions of a blended, rolled-off audio signal and a pure audio signal as a function of the RF carrier strength to improve the overall listenability of the audio.
