Abstract:
1. A direct current (DC Bus) for use in a power module, comprising: a positive DC conductor bus plate; a negative DC conductor bus plate placed parallel to said positive bus; a plurality of positive leads connected to said positive bus, wherein said positive leads are connectable to a positive terminal of a power source; a plurality of negative leads connected to said negative bus, wherein said negative leads are connectable to a ground terminal; one or more positive connections fastenable from said positive bus to the high side of the power module; one or more negative connections fastenable from said negative bus to the low side of the power module; wherein said positive bus and said negative bus permit counter-flow of currents thereby canceling magnetic fields and their associated inductances; and wherein said positive bus and said negative bus are located between the high side and the low side of the power module.
