Abstract
A power supply apparatus has chassis (42, 44) mounted on opposing surfaces of a heat sink (40). Printed circuit boards (46, 48) are disposed outward of the chassis (42, 44) and detachably secured to the chassis (42, 44). Semiconductor modules (4, 16a, 16b, 32) are mounted on the respective surfaces of the heat sink (40) facing toward the printed circuit boards (46, 48) and extend through the chassis (42, 44). The semiconductor modules (4, 16a, 16b, 32) are electrically connected to the printed circuit boards (46, 48) to form a power supply circuit.
