Abstract
A power electronics converter includes a substrate and a converter commutation cell including a power circuit. The power circuit includes at least one power semiconductor switching element and at least one capacitor. Each power semiconductor switching element is comprised in a power semiconductor prepackage. An electrical connection side of the respective power semiconductor prepackage is spaced apart in a z direction from the substrate so as to define a prepackage gap between the substrate and the electrical connection side. At least a portion of the prepackage gap is filled with an electrically insulating material having voids. A converter parameter σ defined as an insulation fill factor divided by a maximum void size is greater than or equal to 10/mm. The insulation fill factor is defined as a cumulated volume of the voids subtracted from a volume of the electrically insulating material divided by the volume of the electrically insulating material.
