Abstract: Planar, double-side cooled half-bridge power modules using sintered-silver interposers and all sintered-silver joints are described. Thermo-mechanical simulations showed that use of the sintered-silver interposers reduce the thermo-mechanical stresses at vulnerable interfaces as compared to using solid copper interposers. The porous sintered-silver interposers are also easily deformable under a low load, which improves the yield of module interconnections in the presence of imperfections caused by variations in die thickness, interposer height, and substrate distortion. Results on the electrical performance of the modules validate the fabrication approach for the modules, for making high power-density converters with reliable operations at high junction temperatures.

When the instance of the transaction processing module has reached an interruption point, the instance of the transaction processing module is suspended, and a third-party programming code is executed within an isolated runtime environment. The third-party programming code is configured to provide an output value based on attributes of the transaction. The instance of the transaction processing module then determines whether to authorize or deny the transaction based in part on the output value.
