Abstract

A circuit carrier (2) (printed circuit board 2) has two metallic outer layers (13, 14) and at least one metallic intermediate layer (11, 12). Insulating layers (8, 9) are arranged between the outer layers (13, 14) and the intermediate layer (11, 12). A component (3, 5) to be cooled and a cooling element (6, 7) are arranged on the outer layers (13, 14). The cooling element (6, 7) is thermally coupled to the component (3, 5) to be cooled via a heat conducting path. The heat conducting path runs partly in the intermediate layer (11, 12). Heat is transferred transversely in said path.
