Abstract
An electric component has a housing part and a component support which is provided with a conductor path structure. The conductor path structure has an interruption, by which a connection section of the conductor path structure is galvanically separated from a main section of the conductor path structure. The component support is arranged on the housing part such that a heat-conductive connection is produced between the component support and the housing part. The main section remains galvanically separated from the housing part. The electric resistance between the main section of the conductor path structure and the housing part is measured. The component support is secured to the housing part by a securing element. The interruption is electrically bridged by the securing element and the main section is electrically conductively connected to the housing component.

16. A method of producing an electric component,
the electric component having a housing part and a component support provided with a conductor path structure, the component support having a first main side and a second main side opposite the first main side, and the component support having a plurality of electronic components arranged on the first main side; -
the conductor path structure having an interruption galvanically separating a connection section of the conductor path structure from a main section of the conductor path structure; and the main section of the conductor path structure connecting the electronic components to one another; the method comprising the following steps; arranging the component support with the second main side on the housing part to thereby produce a heat-conductive connection between the component support and the housing part and remaining the main section galvanically separated from the housing part; subsequently applying a voltage between the housing and the main section of the conductor path structure, and measuring an electrical resistance between the main section and the housing part; and subsequently securing the component support on the housing part with at least one securing element, and thereby electrically bridging the interruption with the securing element and electrically conductively connecting the main section to the housing component. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19)

20. An electronic component, comprising:
-
a housing part; a component support having a first main side, a second main side opposite said first main side, and a conductor path structure; said component support being disposed with said second main side on said housing part and connected to said housing part via at least one securing element; said conductor path structure having, in a region of said securing element, an interruption, by way of which a connection section of said conductor path structure is galvanically separated from a main section of said conductor path structure; a plurality of electronic components arranged on said first main side of said component support and electrically connected to one another by way of said main section of said conductor path structure; wherein said connection section is electrically conductively connected to said housing part; when said securing element secures said component support on said housing part, said securing element bridges said interruption electrically and produces an electrically conductive connection between said main section of said conductor path structure, which main section is otherwise galvanically separated from the housing part, and said housing part by way of the electric bridging of the interruption between said connection section and said main section by said securing element. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32)
