Laminated Bus-Bar

• A polymer, such as epoxy, glues together thick conductor bars while providing electrical isolation. The bars can be free-floating laminated interconnects or, if sufficiently thick, be the metal carrier. Vias between layers are metal posts or fasteners placed through drilled or stamped holes. These are used in high current systems and can accommodate very large components.

• Bus Bars are used in power engineering, laminated bus bars are used in power electronics.

Paradigm shift

Image a printed circuit board with multi-level interconnects. Imagine the the glass-epoxy is dissolved away and the conductors are enlarged with thin dielectric films separating conductors. Described is the capability of multi-level laminated bus bar systems.
