By taking a systems approach to power distribution, and using a laminated copper bus bar over wire, packaging engineers can integrate circuit protection directly into the power path, thereby providing a single component to this important subsystem. Additional thermal and electrical improvements, and improved reliability are also achieved.
Today’s power distribution systems impose particular demands on engineers, who constantly must make the most efficient use of space (more power in smaller packages) and deal with the potential negative effects of vibration in an assembly. The method most favored by Eldre begins with a self-clinching fastener mounted on the bus bar.
