Abstract

PURPOSE: To obtain enough heat dissipation effect even if a power module generates large heat and thereby improve reliability of a part, etc., by dissipating heat of a heat generation part through a resin mold, a contact piece and a case. CONSTITUTION: A heat generation part 1a such as a transformer and a power transistor, for example, is soldered to one side of a substrate 1 and a part lb which hardly generates heat such as a compact resistance and a capacitor is soldered to the other end through a lead 1c. The substrate 1 is contained inside a metallic case 2 of good heat dissipation property, for example. Furthermore, for example, the heat generation part 1a is held by resin mold 3 such as elastic silicon rubber having good heat conductivity. A contact piece 4 formed integral with the case 1 is in press-contact with an upper surface of the resin mold 3. Therefore, heat generated from the heat generation body 1 is transferred to the contact piece 4 through the resin mold 3 and is further dissipated through a surface of the case 2 and an opening 5.
