Automotive-grade top-side-cooling power packages and module
HU3PAK, ACEPACK SMIT and ACEPACK DMT-32
To meet today's stringent market demands, our HU3PAK and ACEPACK SMIT SMD packages, along with the ACEPACK DMT-32 through-hole power module, all feature top-side cooling (TSC) and are specifically designed to deliver higher power density, improved thermal management, and easy assembly. These features make them ideal for high-power automotive and industrial applications.
Selecting the optimal top-side cooling solution can be a complex decision, influenced by various factors such as power density, thermal management needs, PCB and cooling system design considerations, and specific application requirements to meet efficiency and cost targets.
To help you make an informed choice from among the three package and module options below, we invite you to take part in our upcoming webinar.
The HU3PAK is designed for surface mounting on a printed circuit board, with its top side connected to an external heat sink. This design optimizes thermal performance, allowing the device to handle maximum power without needing to dissipate heat through the PCB, unlike H2PAK/D2PAK packages
ACEPACK SMIT power modules feature a direct bonded copper (DBC) ceramic metal-isolation-metal substrate on the top side which improves thermal coupling with heatsinks. With low electrical parasitic inductance and thermal resistance, it supports various electrical circuit solutions from single-switch to multi-die topologies in the 1 to 50 kW power range. Its epoxy molding compound offers outstanding resistance to moisture and heat for automotive and industrial applications.
ACEPACK DMT-32 is a dual in-line, molded, through-hole, 32-pin power module designed for BEV/HEV automotive and industrial applications. Leveraging ST's advanced SiC technology, it supports a wide range of power applications, including on-board chargers (OBC), DC/DC converters, fluid pumps, air conditioning, solar energy, and motor drives. The direct bonded copper (DBC) packaging based on aluminum nitride (AlN) ensures higher thermal conductivity, low thermal resistance, and high electrical isolation.
