  • Publication number: 20230360990
    Abstract: A hermetically sealed semiconductor die package having a sidewall structure having a first opening and a second opening; a lid attached to the sidewall structure to hermetically seal the first opening; a substrate attached to the sidewall structure to hermetically seal the second opening, wherein the substrate comprises first, second, and third apertures; a first button attached to the substrate to hermetically seal the first aperture; a second button attached to the substrate to hermetically seal the second aperture; and a third button attached to the substrate to hermetically seal the third aperture.

  • Patent number: 7741706
    Abstract: A low profile, 1 or 2 die design, surface mount high power microelectronic package with coefficient of expansion (CTE) matched materials such as Silicon die to Molybdenum conductor (bond pads). The CTE matching of the materials in the package enables the device to withstand repeated, extreme temperature range cycling without failing or cracking. The package can be used for transient voltage suppression (TVS), Schottky diode, rectifier diode, or high voltage diodes, among other uses. The use of a heat sink metal conductor that has a very high modulus of elasticity allows for a very thin wall plastic locking to be utilized in order to minimize the footprint of the package.
