Abstract
A circuit board assembly includes a printed circuit board (PCB) substrate, a cooling assembly, an intermediate layer, one or more power devices, and a plurality of conductive layers arranged within the PCB substrate. The PCB substrate has a first surface and an opposite second surface that has a first electrical pattern. The cooling assembly is thermally coupled to the second surface of the PCB substrate. The intermediate layer is sandwiched between the PCB substrate and the cooling assembly. The one or more power devices are embedded within the PCB substrate. The plurality of conductive layers are configured to electrically couple the one or more power devices and thermally couple the one or more power devices to the cooling assembly. At least a portion of the intermediate layer has a second electrical pattern that is similarly patterned to the first electrical pattern of the second surface of the PCB substrate.
