Abstract

Example embodiment is a power converter that adopt a 3D structure to increase the power density and improve thermal performance. The power converter includes a bottom substrate and at least one side substrate. Both the bottom substrate and the side substrate are rigid. Each side substrate is connected with the bottom substrate by a flexible substrate and forms an angle with the bottom substrate. The bottom substrate is further electrically connected with a plurality of surface mounting devices which are rigid. The flexible substrate provides electrical connection between the bottom substrate and the side substrate.
