    Abstract: A power module includes: a lead frame having a base region and leads; a plurality of substrates each having a first metallized side attached to the base region of the lead frame, a second metallized side opposite the first metallized side, and an insulating body that electrically isolates the first and second metallized sides from one another; at least one semiconductor die attached to the second metallized side of each substrate; and a mold compound encapsulating the semiconductor dies and part of the lead frame. The semiconductor dies are electrically interconnected within the power module to form part of a power electronics circuit. The base region of the lead frame is electrically isolated from the power electronics circuit by the insulating body of the substrates. The leads of the lead frame protrude from one or more side faces of the mold compound and form terminals of the power module.

    Abstract: A package and method of making a package is disclosed. In one example, the package includes an electronic chip having at least one pad, an encapsulant at least partially encapsulating the electronic chip, and an electrically conductive contact element extending from the at least one pad and through the encapsulant so as to be exposed with respect to the encapsulant. The electrically conductive contact element comprises a first contact structure made of a first electrically conductive material on the at least one pad and comprises a second contact structure made of a second electrically conductive material and being exposed with respect to the encapsulant. At least one of the at least one pad has at least a surface portion which comprises or is made of the first electrically conductive material.

    Abstract: A cooling apparatus includes a discrete module and a plastic housing. The discrete module includes a semiconductor die encapsulated by a mold compound, a plurality of leads electrically connected to the semiconductor die and protruding out of the mold compound and a first cooling plate at least partly uncovered by the mold compound. The plastic housing surrounds the periphery of the discrete module. The plastic housing includes a first singular plastic part which receives the discrete module and a second singular plastic part attached to a periphery of the first plastic part. The second plastic part has a cutout which exposes at least part of the first cooling plate and a sealing structure containing a sealing material which forms a water-tight seal around the periphery of the discrete module at a side of the discrete module with the first cooling plate.
