Abstract: A solid state power controller configured to supply electric power from a power supply to at least one load, comprises: a solid state switching device having a first terminal (D) connected to the power supply, and a second terminal (S) connected to the load, the solid state switching device configured to switch between an OFF operation mode in which the second terminal (S) is electrically disconnected from the power supply, and an ON operation mode in which the second terminal (S) is electrically connected to the power supply, and a load current detection unit configured to detect a load current through the solid state switching device; wherein the load current detection unit comprises a first load current amplifier and a second load current amplifier.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a power semiconductor chip module, comprising a substrate having a top side and a bottom side; at least one first power semiconductor device attached to the top side of the substrate; at least one first conductive structure thermally and electrically connecting the first power semiconductor device to the top side of the substrate; at least one second power semiconductor device attached to the bottom side of the substrate; and at least one second conductive structure connecting the second power semiconductor device to the bottom side of the substrate.

Abstract: A solid-state power distribution system having a first solid-state switching device (SSSD) and a second solid-state switching device (SSSD) for distributing power from an AC power source to a load includes a leakage current reduction circuit for reducing leakage current generated by the SSSDs when Off. When the first and second SSSDs are Off, the leakage current reduction circuit provides a positive bias voltage across controlled terminals of the first SSSD and a negative bias voltage across controlled terminals of the second SSSD.
