Abstract

The present invention relates to a single phase, non-insulated, miniaturized DC/AC power inverter having an output power density higher than 3000 W/dm3, wherein said power inverter is packaged in a casing made of an external electrically conductive enclosure containing a fan blowing in an axial direction to a side face of the casing and, in a stacked elevation arrangement, successively from a bottom side to a top side, a layer of active filter capacitors, a heatsink, a layer of wideband semiconductors switches connected to a PCB with thermal vias and a layer of active filtering inductors, the fan and the component stacked arrangement being designed so as, in operation, the external temperature of the casing does not overcome 60° C. in any point, for an ambient temperature of maximum 30° C. under a maximum load of 2 kVA.
