Abstract
An electronic device includes an enclosure, one or more power semiconductor dies within the enclosure, a supply terminal, and a thermal bridge. The supply terminal is electrically connected to the one or more power semiconductor dies and is at least partially exposed from the enclosure. The supply terminal extends lengthwise in a longitudinal direction and includes a constricted region where a width of the supply terminal reduces in a lateral direction transverse to the longitudinal direction. The thermal bridge is distinct from the enclosure. The thermal bridge bridges the constricted region and provides a thermal conduction path that is in parallel with a thermal conduction path of the supply terminal. The thermal bridge is non-magnetic and has a thermal conductivity that is higher than a thermal conductivity of the enclosure.
