Abstract

In a transfer-mold configuration of an automotive electronic control unit, the thermal expansion coefficient of the circuit board is made apparently equal to that of the base member to suppress excessive stresses between them. The circuit board and the base member are placed in the center of the transfer-mold structure to make thermal stresses symmetrical and thus suppress strains.
