Abstract

Abstract A semiconductor device having a plurality of conductive leads extending therefrom is provided for reliably and repeatable positioning and holding a separate electronic device. The conductive leads are disposed apart to provide a predetermined space therebetween. Upstanding sidewall portions of desired dimensions are formed in the conductive leads at a predetermined distance from the central body portion of the semiconductor device. The separate electronic device is inserted in the space between opposite upstanding sidewall portions and is engaged and mechanically held thereby.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 103 words
A semiconductor device with fixture means for positioning and holding a plurality of separate and additional component parts in an external predetermined relationship with said semi-conductor device, comprising: a central semiconductor body portion having a plurality of rigid conductive leads extending radially outwardly therefrom, each of said conductive leads having at least one upstanding sidewall portion being spaced and aligned in a predetermined manner with respect to said central body portion, said conductive leads cooperatively being disposed apart to form a space therebetween whereby said upstanding sidewall portions function as fixtures for engaging and mechanically holding a separate component part when inserted therebetween.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 103 words
A semiconductor device with fixture means for positioning and holding a plurality of separate and additional component parts in an external predetermined relationship with said semi-conductor device, comprising: a central semiconductor body portion having a plurality of rigid conductive leads extending radially outwardly therefrom, each of said conductive leads having at least one upstanding sidewall portion being spaced and aligned in a predetermined manner with respect to said central body portion, said conductive leads cooperatively being disposed apart to form a space therebetween whereby said upstanding sidewall portions function as fixtures for engaging and mechanically holding a separate component part when inserted therebetween.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 25 words
A semiconductor device according to claim 1 wherein said central semiconductor body portion having a plurality of conductive leads extending therefrom comprises a power transistor.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 30 words
A semiconductor device according to claim 2 wherein at least one of said conductive leads is connected separately to each of the base, collector, and emitter of said power transistor.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 25 words
A semiconductor device according to claim 3 wherein said separate component part is a compression mica capacitor which provides RF matching for said power transistor.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 29 words
A semiconductor device according to claim 4 wherein said compression mica capacitor is provided between the base and emitter and between the collector and emitter of said power transistor.
