Abstract
An intelligent power module (IPM) has a first, second, third and fourth die paddles, a first, second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth transistors, a tie bar, a low voltage IC, a high voltage IC, a first, second and third boost diodes, a plurality of leads and a molding encapsulation. The first transistor is attached to the first die paddle. The second transistor is attached to the second die paddle. The third transistor is attached to the third die paddle. The fourth, fifth and sixth transistor s are attached to the fourth die paddle. The low and high voltage ICs are attached to the tie bar. The molding encapsulation encloses the first, second, third and fourth die paddles, the first, second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth transistors, the tie bar, the low and high voltage ICs, and the first, second and third boost diodes. The IPM has a reduced top surface area and a reduced number of leads compared to a conventional IPM.
