Abstract: The invention relates to a method of forming a thick-film circuit arrangement having an electronic circuit which is constructed on a surface (17) of a ceramic substrate plate (3) and which consists of conductor paths (5), resistors, capacitors and components, in particular integrated switching circuits without a housing, formed according to thick-film technique, in this structure has between the electrically conductive structures (5) a sintered, non-conductive paste substantially filling the intermediate spaces between them and both the structures and the interposed pastes are covered by a sintered insulating paste. For concealing the thick-film circuit arrangement from unauthorized access, the following covering construction is carried out:1.
