 Abstract   A review of the state of the art of the packaging aspects of integrated power modules (IPMs) for 0.75 kW and 2 kW industrial motor drive applications is presented from the user's perspective. The power electronic packaging aspects of a number of commercial IPMs were analysed in terms of complexity, electrical and thermal performance, build and manufacturability, all factors, which would influence their use and reliability. Results of thermal simulations are presented which compare the dynamic behaviour of the most common module build options in overload operation. Recent trends on packaging of these types of modules are presented.
