Abstract

A method for cooling power electronics circuits, in which a printed circuit board is produced according to a prescribed circuit board process and is populated with at least one power electronics components. Contact connecting at least one location on at least one metallic conductor track running on a surface of the printed circuit board that includes at least one metal element, which is both electrically conductive and heat-conductive and the physical height of which is designed to be at least as large as that of the at least one power electronics component. A cooling plate is placed in a planar manner onto the at least one power electronics component and/or the at least one metal element.
