Abstract
An array of heat-sinked power semiconductors that includes a power semiconductor and a heat sink. The power semiconductor has a power semiconductor die, a plurality of first terminals and a second terminal. The power semiconductor die has a plurality of semiconductor terminals. Each of the first terminals is electrically coupled to an associated one of the semiconductor terminals. The second terminal is a surface mount terminal and is electrically coupled to one of the first terminals. The heat sink has a heat sink body and a plurality of fins. The heat sink body has a base and an exterior surface. The base is fixedly coupled directly to the surface mount terminal. The exterior surface has a fin mount portion to which the fins extend. At least a portion of the fin-mount portion is oriented non-parallel to base.
