Abstract:
An electrical interconnection system for electrical components of a module includes a hub printed circuit board (PCB) having a first electrically conductive track and a second electrically conductive track. Each of the first and second electrically conductive tracks is configured to electrically connect at least two of the electrical components of the module, wherein the at least two of the electrical components of the module are external to the hub PCB. The system also includes multiple electrical terminals, wherein each of the electrical terminals is configured to electrically connect one of the first and second electrically conductive tracks of the hub PCB to one of the at least two electrical components of the module.
Abstract:
In at least one embodiment, a busbar assembly for a vehicle is provided. The assembly includes a printed circuit board (PCB), a first plate, a second plate, and a third plate. The first plate supported on the PCB and is configured to enable a first current to flow in a first direction. The second plate is supported on the PCB and includes a first portion positioned below the first plate to enable a second current to flow in a second direction. The third plate is on the PCB and is positioned below the second plate to enable the first current to flow in the first direction. The second current that flows through the second plate is increased through an effective cross-section of the second plate when the flow of the second current in the second direction is different than the flow of the first current in the first direction.
