Original Abstract

With rise of GaN and SiC semiconductors in last few years, amount of available power semiconductors in minimized surface mount packages significantly increased. Together with rising pressure to increase power density of power conversion systems became effective design of cooling crucial. The aim of this article is to propose innovative methods of cooling of minimized surface mount packages, especially in application of power electronics. Article presents FEM thermal simulation of several possible variants of problem solution and provides results of measurement on physical prototypes with intention to compare. Results shows that the future of cooling in power electronics belongs to printed circuit boards with metal substrate.
