Classification: CPC G  H | IPC G  H

Claim 20:
21. A method of producing a power electronic assembly, the method comprising:
providing a power semiconductor module comprising an electrically insulative frame having a border wall that defines a periphery of the electrically insulative frame, a busbar extending through the border wall, a receptacle in the border wall that exposes part of the busbar, the exposed part of the busbar having an opening, and a first rotation bar jutting out from a first sidewall of the receptacle and onto the exposed part of the busbar without obstructing the opening;
attaching a metal base plate to a first mounting side of the power semiconductor module; and
attaching a circuit board with a current sensor module to a second mounting side of the power semiconductor module opposite the first mounting side,
wherein attaching the circuit board comprises inserting the current sensor module into the receptacle in the border wall of the power semiconductor module such that a part of the current sensor module extends through the opening in the busbar,
wherein the current sensor module is free to rotate about an axis of rotation formed by the first rotation bar during the inserting.
