Patent number: 7288831Abstract: In a two-pole SMT miniature housing in leadframe technique for semiconductor components, a semiconductor chip is mounted on one leadframe part and is contacted to a further leadframe part. The further leadframe part is conducted out of the housing in which the chip is encapsulated as a solder terminal. No trimming or shaping process is required and the housing is tight and is capable of further miniaturization. The solder terminals as punched parts of the leadframe are conducted projecting laterally from the housing sidewalls residing opposite one another at least up to the housing floor which forms the components' mounting surface. The chip mounting surface and the components' mounting surface form a right angle with one another.Type: GrantFiled: August 8, 2006Date of Patent: October 30, 2007Assignee: Osram GmbHInventors: Guenther Waitl, Franz Schellhorn, Herbert Brunner

Patent number: 5027995Abstract: A semiconductor chip (1) is bonded to a substrate (2) serving as a component housing, a contact part, an insulative part or a connecting part without the use of a high-temperature process or any additional bonding medium such as solder or flux. The backside of the semiconductor chip (1) or substrate (2) is structured to include specially formed bumps (3) for the necessary connections. A ductile metal is used for these bumps (3). The bond to the substrate (2) is formed by using pressure and/or ultrasonic energy. The process according to this invention is particularly suitable for bonding components in data link receivers, optoelectronic couplers, transmitters (LEDs, IREDs) and ISDN modules.Type: GrantFiled: February 19, 1991Date of Patent: July 2, 1991Assignee: Siemens AktiengesellschaftInventors: Alois Karl, Karl Osojnik, Werner Spaeth, Guenther Waitl

Patent number: 4875750Abstract: An optoelectronic coupling element and method for manufacturing the coupling element. The coupling element includes a light wave guide, a microlens, a first carrier chip and a light emitting and/or light detecting semiconductor element. The microlens is preferably spherical in shape and is adapted for optically coupling the light wave guide and the semiconductor element. The semiconductor element can be part of the first carrier chip or, according to another embodiment, can be part of a second carrier chip. The purpose of this coupling element is to facilitate the precise mounting of the microlens in a position between the light wave guide and the semiconductor element and also facilitate the adjustment of the microlens to optimally perform its light coupling function. The method for manufacturing the coupling element provides for the formation of a receptacle having trapezoidal shape sides in the carrier chip. The microlens is mounted within the receptacle with a connecting medium such as glass.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 1988Date of Patent: October 24, 1989Assignee: Siemens AktiengesellschaftInventors: Werner Spaeth, Guenther Waitl, Werner Kuhlmann, Hans-Ludwig Althaus, Rolf Birkmann, Waltraud Klos, Axel Schubert
