A power converter includes bus bars that have a dual function of cooling the electronic switches and of conducting power to or from the electronic switches. Indeed, the electronic switches, that are packaged in a TO-220 or similar package, have the large tab of the package directly soldered or otherwise fastened to the bus bar, therefore efficiently cooling the switches. Furthermore, since the tabs are electrically connected to a portion of the electronic switch, the bus bars are connected to a portion of the electronic circuit of the power converter. |
