About the Half bridge PCB

Half bridge is an open source PCB design by paltatech, published on GitHub. It is a 4-layer board measuring 162 × 100 mm, with 249 components from 76 distinct parts.

Other key parts include the ISO5852S, LM5030, LM1117IMP-v.v, SI8710B and OPA2172. By type, the board carries 84 resistors, 80 capacitors, 25 diodes, 20 transistors, 13 test points and 11 ICs.

From the project

TO247 half bridge module for EVs

70kw nominal, 150kw peak TO247 IGBT to allow for easy silicon upgrades and power capabilities. Its also cheaper. Watercooled Embedded security features (desaturation, soft turn off, reinforced isolation)

Will need some cnc milling, components, a pcb, and some spot welding

Made open source with open source tools (kicad, freecad)
