  • Patent number: 10622944
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes an electronic component that includes an oscillator and has terminals on one face. A semiconductor chip is electrically connected to the electronic component and also includes terminals on one face thereof. The electronic component and the semiconductor chip are mounted to a mounting base such that the terminals of the electronic component and the terminals of the semiconductor chip face in the same direction. First bonding wires are connected to the terminals of the semiconductor chip, and second bonding wires having an apex height smaller than that of the first bonding wires connect the terminals of the electronic component to the terminals of the semiconductor chip. A sealing member completely seals within at least the electronic component.

  • Patent number: 10141015
    Abstract: A reference block which is machined from a single body of material and is a single block with reference pins integral therewith is configured for use in a method of manufacturing a head suspension by laser-welding the flexure to the load beam at a first welding spot so that a tongue is pressed against a convex portion under predetermined load. The method includes steps of forming, before joining the flexure and load beam together, at least one positioning reference hole in each of the flexure and load beam within a circular range that is defined around the first welding spot with a radius equal to a distance between the first welding spot and the projection, laying the flexure and load beam one on another, inserting the reference pins of the reference pin block into the reference holes, and laser-welding the flexure and load beam to each other at the first welding spot.
