Original Abstract Submitted
An electronic control device capable of achieving both high heat dissipation and solder connection reliability is achieved. An electronic control device includes a circuit board mounted with an electronic component and a connector , a base housing this circuit board , a cover closing this base , a heat dissipation pedestal formed on the base , and a thermally conductive material arranged on an upper surface of this heat dissipation pedestal . On the upper surface of the heat dissipation pedestal on which the thermally conductive material is arranged, a plurality of grooves formed radially from the center of the upper surface of the heat dissipation pedestal and where the thermally conductive material enters are formed. The electronic component is configured to be in contact with the heat dissipation pedestal via the thermally conductive material . This can achieve an electronic control device capable of achieving both high heat dissipation and solder connection reliability.
