    摘要: A thermoelectric module is capable of successfully reducing the heat stress for increased reliability. The module includes a plurality of thermoelectric chips of P-type and N-type arranged in a matrix between sets of first and second contacts to form a series electrical circuit. The chips are arranged to give at least three chip arrays each having a limited number of the chips. A first carrier is provided on one side of the chips to carry the first contacts and to include first bridges each integrally joining two adjacent first contacts to define first discrete couples for electrical connection of the chips in each chip array. The first carrier further includes at least two inter-array bridges which are solely responsible for electrical interconnection between the adjacent chip arrays. On the opposite side of the chips, there are formed a plurality of second bridges each integrally joining the two adjacent second contacts to give second discrete couples for electrical connection of the two adjacent chips in each of the chip arrays. Thus, the inter-array bridges are formed only on one side of the chips for interconnection of the first contacts between the adjacent chip arrays. Therefore, the heat stress applied to the end of the chip array where the two adjacent chip arrays are interconnected can be well relieved on the side of the second contacts in which the second discrete couples are kept totally isolated from each other.

    摘要: A method of fabricating a thermoelectric module in which a plurality of thermoelectric chips are arranged in a matrix between first and second dielectric substrates and electrically connected in series so as to heat one of the substrates and cool the other substrate. Elongated thermoelectric bars of P-type and N-type to be cut into the chips are employed together with a first conductive plate having a plurality of first contacts arranged in a matrix pattern. Adjacent first contacts spaced along the row are interconnected by horizontal bridges. The method of the present invention comprises the steps of integrating the first conductive plate to the first substrate to support the first conductive plate thereby; placing a plurality of the bars of the P-type and N-type on the first contacts along the rows in such a manner that the P-type bars alternate with the N-type bars in a spaced relation along the column; bonding each bar on its one face to the first contacts; cutting each bar into the chips and cutting the horizontal bridges simultaneously to allocate the chips on the individual first contacts; placing a plurality of second contacts of a second substrate onto the chips to form a series electric circuit of the chips in combination with the first contacts, and bonding the second substrate supporting the second contacts to the first substrate.
