Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of power module technology, and in particular to a high-efficiency heat dissipation-reinforced packaging structure for power modules. Background Technology

[0002] As electronic devices continue to move towards miniaturization and integration, the physical space occupied by power modules is becoming increasingly limited. This makes it difficult for heat to dissipate quickly in such a confined space, easily leading to heat accumulation and a series of problems. For example, excessively high temperatures accelerate the aging of electronic components and reduce their lifespan. Critical components such as capacitors and inductors experience rapid degradation of their electrical performance under high temperatures, potentially causing poor stability of the power module's output voltage and current, thus failing to meet the normal power supply requirements of electronic devices.

[0027] In one embodiment, combined Figures 1 to 4 This invention provides a high-efficiency heat dissipation and ruggedized packaging structure for a power module, including a metal base plate 1, an insulating frame 3, an adapter PCB 4, and a pin assembly 5. The metal base plate 1 includes multiple heat dissipation surfaces. The adapter PCB 4 has conductive lines. The insulating frame 3 is mounted on the metal base plate 1 and the adapter PCB 4 is mounted on the insulating frame 3. The power module 2 is fixed to the adapter PCB 4 by soldering and is electrically connected to the pin assembly 5 on the adapter PCB 4 through the conductive lines. The power module 2 is a plastic-encapsulated package with a suspended array of pins 2.1, including a PCBA substrate with plastic encapsulation on both sides, and pins 2.1 arranged in an array on the unencapsulated area of ​​the PCBA substrate, extending outward and in a suspended state. The insulating frame 3 is arranged around the power module to insulate the pins 2.1 of the power module 2.

[0028] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the metal base plate 1 includes at least five heat dissipation surfaces. It may be, but is not limited to, a rectangular cavity structure.

[0029] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the heat dissipation area of ​​the metal base plate 1 accounts for at least 55% of the package body.

[0030] Preferably, in some embodiments, the metal base plate 1 is made of aluminum, which has good thermal conductivity and strong structural performance.

[0031] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the insulating frame 3 and the metal base plate 1 are fixedly connected by a snap-fit ​​structure.

[0032] Preferably, in some embodiments, in combination with Figure 3 The insulating frame 3 and the metal base plate 1 are respectively provided with mutually cooperating protrusions 1.2 and grooves 3.1 on their mounting and connecting surfaces, so as to realize the installation and fixation of the two and limit the horizontal direction.

[0033] Here, the dimensional accuracy requirements of the protrusion 1.2 are generally controlled within ±0.1mm, and the dimensional accuracy requirements of the groove 3.1 are generally controlled within ±0.1mm, to ensure a tight fit with the metal base plate 1.

[0034] Here, the cooperation between the protrusion 1.2 and the groove 3.1 can restrict the horizontal movement of the metal base plate 1 and the insulating frame 3, making it less likely for them to undergo relative displacement when subjected to vibration or impact.

[0035] Preferably, in some embodiments, adhesive is applied to the groove 3.1. This ensures the structural strength between the metal base plate 1 and the insulating frame 3 to the greatest extent possible.

[0036] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the insulating frame 3 is provided with a limiting protrusion 3.2 for assembling the adapter PCB4 and limiting its horizontal position to ensure assembly accuracy.

[0037] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the PIN assembly 5 includes various different types of PIN assemblies 5 for electrical conduction of different functions.

[0038] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the adapter PCB4 is provided with pads 4.1, metallized holes for riveting the PIN assembly 5, and conductive lines from pads 4.1 to the metallized holes, so as to realize the electrical connection between pin 2.1 of the module power supply 2 and the PIN assembly 5.

[0039] Preferably, in some embodiments, in combination with Figure 1 and Figure 5The PIN assembly 5 includes two sizes: a first PIN assembly 5.1 for carrying high current input / output, with a diameter of 2mm; and a second PIN assembly 5.2 for signal, auxiliary source, etc., with a diameter of 1mm. The metallized holes on the adapter PCB 4 include two sizes: a first PIN hole 4.2.1 corresponding to the first PIN assembly 5.1 for carrying high current input / output, with a diameter of 1.25mm; and a first PIN hole 4.2.2 corresponding to the second PIN assembly 5.2, with a diameter of 2.2mm.

[0040] Furthermore, in one embodiment, pin 2.1 is connected to the internal circuitry of the module power supply 2. When the internal components generate heat, some of the heat is conducted to the external circuit board or other heat dissipation structure through pin 2.1.

[0041] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the module power supply 2 has a specific shape and size, which may be a cuboid, cube, or other customized shape to adapt to different application scenarios and installation requirements.

[0042] Preferably, depending on the power level and functional complexity of the module power supply 2, the length and width are between 20mm and 90mm, and the height is between 6mm and 8mm.

[0043] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the metal base plate 1 is mounted on the external structure by a fixing device.

[0044] Preferably, in some embodiments, the metal base plate 1 has screw hole structures 1.1 for screw assembly, which enables highly reliable assembly with external structures (such as back plates).

[0045] Here, the number and position of the screw hole structure 1.1 are not limited. They can be distributed diagonally on both sides of the metal base plate 1, or distributed at the four corners, etc.

[0046] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the space between the insulating frame 3 and the metal base plate 1 is filled with epoxy adhesive.

[0047] Furthermore, in one embodiment, a high thermal conductivity epoxy adhesive is filled between the metal base plate 1 and the module power supply 2 for heat conduction and bonding. The high thermal conductivity epoxy adhesive has a thermal conductivity of not less than 3.0 W / m·K and a bonding strength of not less than 20 MPa.

[0048] Preferably, in some embodiments, the contact surfaces of the metal base plate 1 and the module power supply 2 are bonded with adhesive. The bonding strength can ensure that the metal base plate 1 and the module power supply 2 will not loosen or separate under various working environments and vibration conditions, thus ensuring the mechanical stability and reliability of the entire packaging structure.

[0049] Here, due to the filling and bonding effect of the high thermal conductivity epoxy adhesive, the heat generated by the module power supply 2 can be transferred to the metal base plate 1 through the high thermal conductivity epoxy adhesive, and then quickly dissipated through the five contact surfaces of the metal base plate 1, thereby achieving efficient heat dissipation.

[0050] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the insulating frame 3 is made of a polymer material with excellent insulating properties, and is not limited to polycarbonate (PC), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyetheretherketone (PEEK), etc.

[0051] Here, the material has high insulation strength, reaching over 10kV / mm, which can effectively prevent current from being conducted through the frame, ensuring electrical isolation between pins 2.1 and between pins 2.1 and other components.

[0052] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the insulating frame 3 is in the form of a ring or frame, and its shape and size can be customized according to the shape of the module power supply 2 and the layout of the pins 2.1.

[0053] Here, the thickness of the insulating frame 3 is about 2mm to ensure sufficient mechanical strength and insulation performance.

[0054] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the shape of the adapter PCB 4 is customized based on the module power supply 2 and the corresponding insulating frame 3. The shape may be rectangular, square, or irregular, to meet the compact layout requirements of different application scenarios.

[0055] Preferably, the thickness of the adapter PCB 4 is between 0.8mm and 1.6mm, which provides a certain structural strength.

[0056] The high-efficiency heat dissipation and reinforced packaging structure proposed in this invention allows heat to be transferred from the power module to the packaging shell more quickly, and then dissipated into the environment through the backplate, etc., to avoid heat accumulation and enable the module temperature to drop rapidly, thereby ensuring stable operation of the power module under high load conditions; at the same time, it reduces the interference of external electromagnetic interference on the power module itself and improves the electromagnetic compatibility of the power module.

[0057] In summary, this utility model has good mechanical connection strength, shielding performance and heat dissipation performance, which can effectively improve the power density and reliability of the module power supply, enabling it to adapt to various complex working environments and application requirements.

[0058] It should be noted that for components without special structural limitations, any component that can achieve the corresponding function in the existing technology is acceptable.

[0059] It should also be noted that the above-mentioned settings, installations, connections, and fixations can be made using, but are not limited to, bolts, threads, etc. Any existing fixed or movable connection scheme can be adapted, as long as the corresponding function can be achieved.
