Abstract
An electronics module, such as those used in vehicles, comprises a cuboid housing box which is open on one side, a cover with connection plugs to cover the open side of the housing box, and at least one printed circuit board within the housing box and attached to the printed circuit board. Power components producing relatively significant heat are installed on the printed circuit board and in contact with cooling flanges integral with the cover. To facilitate soldering, the cover does not extend along the soldering side of the printed circuit board.
