CONFIGURABLE POWER CONVERTER PACKAGE

摘要

A configurable power converter package is disclosed. The configurable design allows for the power converter to support the drivetrain needs of a product line of machines without having to design a new power converter for each application. Major components of the power converter package such as the housing, heat sink, power modules, and bus bars are designed to be combined into a number of different power configurations. The power configurations fulfill the needs of a product line of electric drivetrains without the need to design a new power converter package for each application.
