A power electronics assembly for an electric motor controller. The power electronics assembly comprises an insulated metal substrate, a composite material substrate, and a bolt having a bolt head and a bolt shaft for mechanically coupling the composite material substrate to the insulated metal substrate. The power electronics assembly also includes an electrically conductive sleeve configured to be held between a first electrical contact carried by the insulated metal substrate and a second electrical contact carried by the composite material substrate and the bolt is configured to clamp the composite material substrate to the insulated metal substrate to force the electrically conductive sleeve against the first electrical contact and the second electrical contact.

Power electronics assembly

A power electronics assembly for an electric motor controller is disclosed having a first circuit board, a second circuit board spaced from the first circuit board by a stand-off distance, an electrically insulating housing held between the first circuit board and the second circuit board, multiple conductors, and a restraint adapted to hold the electrically insulating housing to the first circuit. The electrically insulating housing includes multiple channels. Each of the multiple conductors are arranged to provide a conduction path through a corresponding channel and are each trapped between the electrically insulating housing and the first circuit board and biased into electrical contact with an electrical conductor of the first circuit board.
