Abstract
Abstract Disclosed herein is a package assembly for a semiconductor device or devices. The package assembly has a ceramic package body and at least one ceramic cover plate. The package body has a circular outer periphery provided with a plurality of projections to be fitted in grooves formed in an inner peripheral surface of a base board, and a plurality of connector terminals on the surface of the body. Also, the package body is formed with a stepped portion or portions in the rear face thereof. The cover plate or plates are sealed to the stepped portion or portions by pastes applied to both the cover plate and the stepped body portion. This ceramic package assembly enables compactness, moisture-proof complete seal and easy mounting thereof.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
182 words
A package assembly in which a semiconductor device or devices are enclosed, which comprises a ceramic package body comprising a first and second face having a circular periphery adapted to be received in a circular opening formed in a base board, a plurality of connector terminals at the first face of the body and at least one stepped portion at the second face of the body for receiving a semiconductor device or devices therein, at least one ceramic cover plate fitted in the stepped portion of the package body, a plurality of projections integrally formed on the circular peripheral surface of the body, said projections being adapted to fit in grooves formed in an inner peripheral surface of the opening of the base board, a paste applied to a ring-shaped area adjacent the inner periphery of the stepped portion, a paste applied to a similar ring-shaped area adjacent the outer periphery of the cover plate, said pastes being adhered to each other when the cover plate fits into the stepped portion, to thereby sealingly attach the cover plate to the stepped portion.
