Abstract:
A device having at least one power semiconductor die coated with a metallization and at least one light guide having two opposite ends. The first end is able to be connected at least to a light source and to a light receiver. The second end is permanently fixed facing to a surface of the metallization such that to form a light path towards said surface and a light path from said surface.
