Driver assembly and method for manufacturing the same

1. A driver assembly, comprising:

a driver housing and

a driver, the driver comprising at least one first portion and a second portion, the first portion having a lower heat resistance than the second portion,

wherein the driver housing comprises at least one first cavity for at least partially accommodating the first portion and a second cavity for accommodating the second portion, and a potting material is potted into the first cavity to envelop the first portion.

2. The driver assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the first portion is a first electronic module, and the second portion comprises a PCB board for mounting the first electronic module and at least one second electronic module mounted on the PCB board.

3. The driver assembly according to claim 2 , wherein the driver housing comprises a bottom for supporting the PCB board, the first cavity is defined by inner frame formed in one piece with the bottom, and the second cavity is the space in the driver housing other than the first cavity.

4. The driver assembly according to claim 3 , wherein the first cavity has a geometrical shape matched with the first electronic module.

5. The driver assembly according to claim 2 , wherein the first cavity merely accommodates the first electronic module.

6. The driver assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the first portion further comprises a heat conductor connected to an end surface of the first electronic module facing the first cavity, and the heat conductor and the first electronic module as a whole are at least partially accommodated in the first cavity.

7. The driver assembly according to claim 6 , wherein the heat conductor is fixed on the end surface via bonding, clipping or welding.

8. The driver assembly according to claim 7 , wherein the heat conductor is a heat conduction stick or a heat conduction flake.

9. The driver assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the first electronic module is an IC chip or an inductor.

10. The driver assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the potting material is a solidifiable liquid or gel.

11. A method for manufacturing a driver assembly, the method comprising:

providing a driver having at least one first portion and a second portion;

providing a driver housing, wherein the driver housing is formed with a first cavity for accommodating the at least one first portion of the driver and a second cavity for accommodating the second portion of the driver, wherein the first portion has a lower heat resistance than the second portion;

filling a potting material in the first cavity; and

mounting the driver in the driver housing, wherein the first portion is at least partially inserted into the first cavity corresponding thereto to encapsulate the first portion.
