Abstract

Abstract A semiconductor device having a semiconductor chip (102), a ceramic base (101), a ceramic frame (105) and a cover (106). The ceramic base (101) is formed with a through hole. One side of said hole is covered by a high-heat conductivity metal plate (100). Said semiconductor chip (102) is mounted through a molybdenum plate (110) on the bottom of a recess formed by one side by said high-heat conductivity metal plate (100) and said through hole. A cooling means (107,108) is secured on said high-heat conductivity metal plate (100) opposite to the side for receiving the semiconductor chip (102).
