CONDUCTIVE METAL FRAME FOR A POWER ELECTRONIC MODULE AND ASSOCIATED MANUFACTURING PROCESS

A conductive metal frame for a power electronics module comprising at least first and second power semiconductor components each having upper and lower faces, connectors for linking these power semiconductor components to external electrical circuits and at least one radiator for expelling via the conductive metal frame the heat flow generated by the power semiconductor components, the conductive metal frame being characterized in that the connectors, the at least one radiator and the conductive metal frame forming a single three-dimensional part made of a single material on an inner surface of which the first and second power semiconductor components are intended to be attached by their lower faces and provision is made for a central folding line so that, once the conductive metal frame is folded on itself, enclosing the first and second power semiconductor components, it provides a double-sided cooling assembly.
