Housing carrier for integrated circuit

Claim 1

A housing carrier for an integrated circuit, comprising: a housing made of conductive material having a bottom and a plurality of lateral sides connected to said bottom to form a box with an open top; passages formed in said lateral sides and said bottom, said passages being made of insulating material; a plurality of conductors, arranged in n (n≧2) rows, disposed at regular intervals according to a given pitch, said n rows being staggered with respect to one another by 1/n pitch; a first end of each conductor extending from said housing to allow an electrical connection to a utilization circuit, a second end of each conductor being connected to said integrated circuit; each conductor passing through one of said passages, with at least one row passing through said bottom and at least one row passing through said lateral sides; an insulating block adjacent to said housing; said first ends of said conductors being bent to extend around at least part of said insulating block so that all of said first ends extend across at least one surface of said insulating block in common.
