Abstract
Abstract An electronic component package is disclosed comprising a metal tube upon whose surfaces is grown an oxide insulative film. A metal layer covers each end of the tube including a portion of the tube''s inside and outside surfaces. A component such as a solid tantalum capacitor, mounted inside the tube is contacted by a conductive plug in each end of the tube. The conductive layers, form the terminals of the package by which the component may be electrically and physically mounted by soldering to a hybrid integrated circuit substrate.
