- control pin receiving a control signal making it possible to control the electronic power module
- an electronic control module separate from the electronic power module and configured to generate the control signal.

- the power electronic module manufacturing process can make it difficult or even impossible to integrate the temperature sensor into the power electronic module. This is particularly the case when the power electronic module is made with TML type technology (Transfer Molded Leadframe in French) where an electrical insulator is overmolded on the bus bars, the pin of control and electronic power component.
- the electrical insulation is for example a thermosetting resin of the epoxy type.

- Figure 5 shows an electronic system 104 according to a second embodiment.
- the heat sink 502 is cooled by heat exchange with the ambient air. Cooling fins 540 located on the surface of the heat sink 502 opposite to the heat exchange surface between the power electronic module 110 and the heat sink 502 can improve cooling by increasing the heat exchange surface with the heat sink. 'ambiant air.
- the heat exchanger 502, the power electronic module 110, the second electronic sub-assembly 900 and the first electronic sub-assembly 700 are successively arranged in parallel planes.
