Patent number: 8971054Abstract: A component assembly that can be easily built in a main substrate with high accuracy is formed such that a glass transition temperature of a built-in-component layer of an assembly substrate in which multiple capacitors are embedded is higher than a glass transition temperature of a built-in-component layer of a built-in-component substrate. Thus, thermal deformation of the component assembly is prevented when the built-in-component substrate in which the component assembly is built is heated during reflow, for example. The component assembly can thus be highly accurately built in the built-in-component substrate. Moreover, when the component assembly in which the multiple capacitors are embedded is built in the built-in-component substrate, electrode pads of the component assembly in which the multiple capacitors are embedded can be electrically connected to wiring layers of the built-in-component substrate by soldering despite the variation in height among the capacitors.Type: GrantFiled: September 14, 2012Date of Patent: March 3, 2015Assignee: Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd.Inventors: Masanori Fujidai, Kazuo Hattori, Isamu Fujimoto

Patent number: 8958215Abstract: The present invention has an objective to provide a circuit board for a peripheral circuit which can transmit outside heat which generates from a high exothermic element, such as a power semiconductor element, while attaining reduction in size and weight, reduction in surge, and reduction in a loss, in high-capacity modules including power modules, such as an inverter. [Solution Means] In a high-capacity module, by laminating a peripheral circuit using a ceramic circuit board with electrode(s) constituted by thick conductor and embedded therein on a highly exothermic element, overheating of the module is prevented by effective heat dissipation via the circuit board while attaining reduction in size and weight, reduction in surge, and reduction in a loss in the module.Type: GrantFiled: November 4, 2013Date of Patent: February 17, 2015Assignee: NGK Insulators, Ltd.Inventors: Takami Hirai, Shinsuke Yano, Tsutomu Nanataki, Hirofumi Yamaguchi
