  • Publication number: 20170069608
    Abstract: A commutation cell having at least one electrical capacitor, at least one controllable semiconductor switch and at least one semiconductor which is connected in series with the controllable semiconductor switch. The commutation cell has three circuit substrates situated in parallel with one another. The controllable semiconductor switch is connected in series with the semiconductor via a circuit substrate situated partially between the controllable semiconductor switch and the semiconductor, and the two remaining circuit substrates being connected to one another in an electrically conductive manner via a subassembly made up of the controllable semiconductor switch, the semiconductor and the circuit substrate situated partially between the controllable semiconductor switch and the semiconductor, the electrical capacitor being switched between the two remaining circuit substrates, separately from the subassembly.
