Abstract
Methods, apparatuses and systems provide for technology that includes a transistor assembly for a power electronics apparatus having a plurality of transistor pairs arranged in a common plane, where for each pair of transistors one transistor is flipped relative to the other transistor. The technology further includes a first lead frame arranged parallel to and electrically coupled to the first transistor in each transistor pair, a second lead frame coplanar to the first lead frame and arranged parallel to and electrically coupled to the second transistor in each transistor pair, and a plurality of output lead frames arranged coplanar to each other, where each respective output lead frame is arranged parallel to and electrically coupled to a respective one pair of the plurality of transistor pairs.
