Abstract:
1. A power module comprising: a power module board comprising an insulating layer and a conductive circuit formed on the insulating layer; a power device provided on the power module board and electrically connected to the conductive circuit; and a thermal conductive sheet for dissipating the heat generated from the power module board and/or the power device; wherein the thermal conductive sheet contains a particle consisting of a plate-like boron nitride particle; and the thermal conductivity in a direction perpendicular to the thickness direction of the thermal conductive sheet is 4 W/m·K or more, a longitudinal direction of the boron nitride particle oriented along a surface direction that is perpendicular to the thickness direction of the thermal conductive sheet, and the thermal conductive sheet is interposed between the insulating layer of the power module board and the power device, and the conductive circuit is formed on the insulating layer so as not to overlap the thermal conductive sheet when projected in the thickness direction.
