Patent ID: 7573107

Claim:
A power module comprising: a power circuit assembly that includes, a thermally conductive substrate having a plurality of conductive pads disposed thereon; a plurality of power circuits, each power circuit comprising a half-bridge that includes a first power semiconductor die having a first power electrode electrically and mechanically connected to a first conductive pad on said substrate by a conductive adhesive and a second power electrode disposed opposite said first power electrode, and a second power semiconductor die having a first power electrode electrically and mechanically connected to a second conductive pad on said substrate by a conductive adhesive; a conductive clip electrically and mechanically connected to said second power electrode of said first power semiconductor die by a conductive adhesive, said second conductive pad and a conductive pad serving as connection of the output of said half-bridge; whereby said first and second power semiconductor die in each half-bridge are electrically connected wire-free, wherein each said second power semiconductor die includes a second power electrode, said second power electrodes being electrically and mechanically connected to a common conductive clip.
