Abstract

An object is to provide an inverter module capable of reducing installation space, and in summary, the inverter module comprises a switching element group provided in a mold package to convert a DC voltage into a three-phase pseudo AC voltage by switching, wherein resistors to detect voltages before and after a switch connected in serial to a DC power source are integrally molded into the mold package, and wherein there are provided pins to connect the resistors before and after the switch, and pins to output terminal voltages of the resistors.

Claims (6)

1. An inverter module comprising:

a switching element group provided in a mold package to convert a DC voltage into a three-phase pseudo AC voltage by switching,

a plurality of resistors integrally molded into the mold package, a first one of the resistors coupled to a first node joining the DC power source and a mechanical switch, a second one of the resistors coupled to a second node joining the mechanical switch and the invertor module,

wherein said plurality of resistors provide output voltages corresponding to voltages at the first and second nodes.

2. The inverter module according to claim 1 , further comprising:

pins to connect the first and second resistors to the first and second nodes, respectively, and pins to output terminal voltages of the resistors.
