Abstract
A small-sized highly reliable power inverter comprises switching elements for inverting power by switching, a drive circuit unit for driving the switching elements, smoothing capacitors for smoothing the output of a DC power source to be supplied to the switching elements, an insulated substrate for mounting the switching elements, a drive circuit board for mounting the drive circuit, and a smoothing capacitor substrate for mounting the smoothing capacitors between the insulated substrate and the drive circuit board, wherein ceramic capacitors are used as the smoothing capacitors and the smoothing capacitor substrate serves as an electromagnetic shielding plate.
