Q: Why does my power module always fail in high temperature, high humidity, or high vibration environments? Is there a material that can conduct heat, insulate, and withstand extreme working conditions?
A: Silicon nitride (Si ∝ N ₄) ceramic substrates are designed to solve such problems. It combines high thermal conductivity (70-90 W/m · K), excellent mechanical strength (flexural strength>800 MPa), low thermal expansion coefficient (≈ 3.2 × 10 ⁻⁶/K), and outstanding electrical insulation performance, and is widely used in fields such as new energy vehicles, rail transit, photovoltaic inverters, industrial power supplies, etc. that require high reliability. Choosing a professional silicon nitride ceramic substrate processing manufacturer means you will obtain a stable, efficient, and long-lasting electronic packaging foundation platform.

Product application: Empowering high-end power electronics systems
Silicon nitride ceramic substrate, as a key material for third-generation semiconductor packaging, has been deeply integrated into the following high-tech scenarios:
-New energy vehicles: DBC (direct bonding copper) or AMB (active metal brazing) substrates for SiC/GaN power modules, supporting 800V high-voltage platforms;
-Rail transit: IGBT modules in traction inverters need to withstand long-term vibration and temperature cycling;
-Photovoltaic and energy storage inverters: improve system efficiency and thermal management capabilities, and extend equipment lifespan;
-Industrial motor drive and high-frequency power supply: meet the dual requirements of heat dissipation and insulation at high switching frequencies.

Core strengths
Thermal conductivity (W/m · K): 70-90
Bending strength (MPa): 800-1000
Fracture toughness (MPa · m ¹/²): 6-8
Thermal expansion coefficient (× 10 ⁻⁶/K):~3.2
Key conclusion: Although aluminum nitride has higher thermal conductivity, its brittleness, high cost, and reliability are questionable; Silicon nitride achieves the best balance between comprehensive mechanical properties and thermal management capabilities, making it particularly suitable for dynamic loads and harsh environments.
