Abstract:
1. A power semiconductor module for mounting in a housing, comprising: a ceramic substrate; contact surfaces arranged on said ceramic substrate in a circuit-friendly manner; components arranged on said ceramic substrate; a pressure contact means consisting of a flexible pressure accumulator and a pressure-generating pressure plate; said pressure contact means further including power and control connections; a flexible circuit board contacting said components; said flexible circuit board being disposed at least partly above a first main surface of said ceramic substrate; said flexible circuit board including conductive strips and contact surfaces, whereby said flexible circuit board connects said components with at least one of each other and contact surfaces of said substrate in said circuit-friendly manner, thus forming said circuit-friendly electrical connection of said module whereby said flexible circuit board forms said circuit-friendly connection with contact surfaces of at least one external circuit board.
