Abstract:
An intelligent power module (IPM) has a first, second, third and fourth die supporting elements, a first, second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth transistors, a connection member, a low voltage IC, a high voltage IC, a plurality of leads and a molding encapsulation. The first transistor is attached to the first die supporting element. The second transistor is attached to the second die supporting element. The third transistor is attached to the third die supporting element. The fourth, fifth and sixth transistor s are attached to the fourth die supporting element. The low and high voltage ICs are attached to the connection member. The molding encapsulation encloses the first, second, third and fourth die supporting elements, the first, second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth transistors, the connection member and the low and high voltage ICs. The IPM has a reduced thermal resistance of junction-to-case (R th JC) compared to a conventional IPM.

Claim (Index 1):
An intelligent power module (IPM) for driving a motor, the IPM comprising:\n a first, second, third and fourth die supporting elements; a first transistor attached to the first die supporting element; a second transistor attached to the second die supporting element; a third transistor attached to the third die supporting element; a fourth, fifth, and sixth transistors attached to the fourth die supporting element; a connection member; a low voltage integrated circuit (IC) attached to the connection member; the low voltage IC being electrically connected to the first, second and third transistors; a high voltage IC attached to the connection member, the high voltage IC being electrically connected to the fourth, fifth, and sixth transistors; a first plurality of leads; a second plurality of leads; a first dummy bar; and a molding encapsulation enclosing the first, second, third, and fourth die supporting elements, the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth transistors, the connection member, the low voltage IC, and the high voltage IC; wherein the first plurality of leads and the second plurality of leads are partially embedded in the molding encapsulation; wherein the first plurality of leads are extruded from a first side surface of the molding encapsulation; wherein the second plurality of leads are extruded from a second side surface of the molding encapsulation opposite the first side surface of the molding encapsulation; wherein a majority portion of the first dummy bar is embedded in the molding encapsulation; wherein the first dummy bar is electrically floating; and wherein an end surface of the first dummy bar is exposed from a first end surface of the molding encapsulation perpendicular to the first side surface of the molding encapsulation.
