Embodiment Construction

[0018] Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0019] figure 1 The illustrated drive circuit device 1 supplies drive power to an electric motor 2 used as a drive source of an electric power steering system that applies assist force to a steering system. As shown in the figure, the drive circuit device 1 includes a drive circuit 3 that supplies drive power to the electric motor 2 and a control circuit 4 that controls the operation of the drive circuit 3 . The drive circuit device 1 of the present embodiment is configured as a motor control unit (ECU). In addition, as the electric motor 2 of this embodiment, the brushless motor which has three phases (U phase, V phase, W phase) is used.

[0020] The drive circuit 3 has upper-stage FETs (field-effect transistors) 12Hu, 12Hv, and 12Hw as first switching elements connected to the vehicle power supply (battery) 11 , and lower-stage FETs 12Lu, 12Lv, and 12Lw as second...

Abstract

The invention provides a drive circuit device. The drive circuit device includes a circuit board (21) having a multilayer structure, which includes first to fourth circuit conductor layers (31a to 31d), and first to third insulating layers (32a to 32c) ; and heat sinks (22, 23) that dissipate heat of the circuit board (21) to an outside. An upper FET (12Hu) state is embedded in the first insulating layer (32a), and a lower FET (12Lu) state is embedded in the second insulating layer (32b). The upper FET (12Hu) and the lower FET (12Lu) are disposed so that a region in which the upper FET (12Hu) is positioned and a region in which the lower FET (12Lu) is positioned overlap each other in a stacking direction. A lead-out portion (41) is formed at a second circuit pattern (33b) of the circuit conductor layer (31b), the lead-out portion (41) extending from the circuit board in a direction orthogonal to the stacking direction, and being connected to the heat sinks so that heat is transferred to the heat sinks.

Description

[0001] This application claims the priority of Japanese Patent Application No. 2013-047828 filed on March 11, 2013, and uses the entire contents including the specification, drawings, and abstract here. technical field [0002] The invention relates to a drive circuit arrangement. Background technique [0003] Generally, supply of drive power to an electric motor is performed using a drive circuit (inverter) in which switching arms having switching elements such as FETs connected in series are connected in parallel. [0004] Conventionally, there is known a drive circuit device (motor control device) having such a drive circuit using a multi-layered circuit conductor layer in which an insulating layer is interposed between a plurality of circuit conductor layers formed with a circuit pattern. layer structure of the circuit board, thereby realizing its miniaturization, etc. For example, refer to JP-A-2009-277726. [0005] However, since a large drive current for driving the...
