Abstract

A semiconductor module system has a semiconductor module and a protective cover. The semiconductor module has a bottom side with a heat dissipation surface and a top side opposite the bottom side, the top side being separated from the bottom side in a vertical direction. The protective cover can be mounted irreleasably on the semiconductor module in such a way that, in a mounted state, the top side is exposed and the protective cover covers the heat dissipation surface. By virtue of the protective cover, a thermal interface material applied onto the heat dissipation surface can be protected.
