THERMOELECTRIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING SAME

摘要

The invention relates to a thermoelectric device (100) with a printed circuit board (102), a component (104) which is arranged on the printed circuit board (102), a cover (106) which covers the printed circuit board (102), a thermoelectric generator (180), and a spring unit (112). The thermoelectric generator (180) is thermally connected to the printed circuit board (102) or metal paths (116) on the printed circuit board (102) and to the cover (106) in order to generate an electric supply voltage (U) for the component (104) from the temperature difference between the printed circuit board (102) and the cover (106). The spring unit (112) elastically holds the thermoelectric generator (180) between the printed circuit board (102) and the cover (106). Another aspect of the invention relates to a method for producing such a thermoelectric device (100).
