Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a static electricity removal device, in particular to a power module static electricity removal device, and belongs to the technical field of static electricity elimination. Background Art

[0002] A power module is a combination of power electronic devices according to specific functions and then encapsulated into a module. It integrates logic, control, detection, and protection circuits, and has high performance and reliability. It mainly includes the IGBT die, gate drive circuit, and protection circuit.

[0003] When packaging power semiconductors, plastic tubes or blister boxes are generally used to place the power module for packaging. Plastic tubes or blister boxes are generally made of anti-static materials. However, even after the power module is placed in the plastic tube or blister box, it still cannot achieve complete electrostatic protection. As a result, the power module may suffer electrostatic damage, resulting in failure of the power module.

[0004] A known Chinese patent (publication number: CN203910787U) discloses an anti-static device for a power module. By using an electrostatic discharge element to short-circuit all lead pins on the power module, the device effectively prevents static electricity from flowing into the power module body along the lead pins, protecting the power module from electrostatic shock and ensuring normal operation of the power module.

[0005] It achieves static electricity release by connecting the pins of the power module to the electrostatic release component. However, the contact area between the power module and the electrostatic release component is small, and there is a lack of a clamping mechanism for the power module. The power module cannot maintain contact with the electrostatic release component, which in turn affects the static electricity removal effect. Therefore, a power module static electricity removal device is proposed. Utility Model Content
