Abstract

Abstract A semiconductor mounting adapter comprising a base member joined to a threaded stud, and a support member joined to the base member. The support member has a mounting surface, a thick region adjacent to the base member which provides good heat dissipation characteristics, and means for mounting an encapsulated semiconductor device onto the mounting surface.
