Abstract:
1. An elastic clip for an apparatus to press a power semiconductor device to a preset place, the apparatus comprising a housing fixed to a heat sink, the heat sink having a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) and is in contact with the power semiconductor device, the elastic clip mounted between a lower surface of the housing and the power semiconductor device and comprising: at least one flat plate each having a predetermined rectangular area and integrally molded on the lower surface of the housing; a pair of connecting arms extending slantwise and downward from two opposite ends of each of the at least one flat plate; and a pair of pressing portions extending horizontally and outward from free ends of each of the pair of connecting arms, wherein each of the pair of pressing portions is elastically deformable in response to a load applied by the housing to the corresponding at least one flat plate in order to press the semiconductor device.
