Abstract
An electrical assembly that includes a semiconductor die, a heat sink and a case. The semiconductor die includes a power semiconductor device with a plurality of terminals, and a plurality of electrically conductive leads. Each of the electrically conductive leads is electrically coupled to an associated one of the terminals on the power semiconductor device. The heat sink has a base, a mount, and a plurality of fins. The mount extends from a first side of the base and is coupled to the semiconductor die. The fins are fixedly coupled to the base and extend from a second side of the base that is opposite the first side of the base. The case is formed of a first electrically insulating material. A first one of the leads is integrally and unitarily formed with the mount.
