Abstract
Abstract The device comprises at least one printed circuit board (11,12) on which is fixed a heightening board (15) comprising at least one opening (16) for forming with the surface of the printed circuit board (12) located in facing relation to the opening, the bottom and the lateral walls of a cavity (17) for at least one integrated circuit (18) connected with the printed circuit carried by the board defining the bottom of the cavity by means of conductive wires (19). The cavity containing the integrated circuit is filled with a resin (22) completely covering the integrated circuit. The printed circuit board (11,12) is cut on its periphery along a line of through holes (23) provided with a metal coating (24) and connected to printed conductors of the board, metallized grooves (23,24) resulting from the cutting constituting connection terminals of the device.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
144 words
Device for packaging integrated circuits, said device comprising at least one printed circuit board, a heightening board fixed to said printed circuit board and comprising at least one opening for forming with a surface of said printed circuit board located in facing relation to said opening, a bottom and lateral walls of a cavity, at least one integrated circuit disposed in said cavity, conductive wires connecting said integrated circuit to said printed circuit carried by said printed circuit board defining said bottom of said cavity, a resin filling said cavity so as to completely cover said integrated circuit, said printed circuit board being cut on the periphery thereof along a line of through holes therein which are provided with a metal coating and connected to printed conductors of said printed circuit board, metallized grooves resulting from said cutting constituting connection terminals of said device.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
144 words
Device for packaging integrated circuits, said device comprising at least one printed circuit board, a heightening board fixed to said printed circuit board and comprising at least one opening for forming with a surface of said printed circuit board located in facing relation to said opening, a bottom and lateral walls of a cavity, at least one integrated circuit disposed in said cavity, conductive wires connecting said integrated circuit to said printed circuit carried by said printed circuit board defining said bottom of said cavity, a resin filling said cavity so as to completely cover said integrated circuit, said printed circuit board being cut on the periphery thereof along a line of through holes therein which are provided with a metal coating and connected to printed conductors of said printed circuit board, metallized grooves resulting from said cutting constituting connection terminals of said device.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
