Patent ID: 8552541

Claim:
A power device package, comprising: a thermal electric module having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface, and a plurality of n-type impurity elements and a plurality of p-type impurity elements connected in series; a wiring pattern disposed on the first surface; a first portion of a lead frame attached to the first surface of the thermal electric module by a conductive adhesive member and electrically connected to the wiring pattern; one or more power semiconductor chips disposed on and electrically connected to the wiring pattern; one or more control semiconductor chips disposed on and electrically connected to a second portion of the lead frame or the wiring pattern, or both, to control the at least one power semiconductor chip, wherein the first and second portions of the lead frame are electrically connected using wiring; power wiring connecting the second portion of the lead frame and the thermal electric module; a sealing member sealing the thermal electric module, the one or more power semiconductor chips, the one or more control semiconductor chips, and at least a portion of the lead frame so as to expose the second surface of the thermal electric module; and a heat sink adjacent the thermal electric module.
