Abstract
Abstract A method for the closing, by laser, of packages of electronic circuits, notably hybrid circuit packages, said method minimizing mechanical stresses. The soldering is done along a soldering path on the lid of the package. The soldering path is divided into segments and two consecutive segments are never soldered one after the other. The method can be applied to the closing of large-sized hybrid packages.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
84 words
A method for the closing, by laser, of packages of electronic circuits, notably hybrid circuit packages, said method minimizing mechanical stresses, the package being constituted by a substrate, a frame and a lid, the soldering of the lid to the frame being done by the moving of the laser beam along a given path on the lid of the package, the path being closed, wherein the soldering path is divided into segments and wherein two consecutive segments are never soldered one after the other.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
84 words
A method for the closing, by laser, of packages of electronic circuits, notably hybrid circuit packages, said method minimizing mechanical stresses, the package being constituted by a substrate, a frame and a lid, the soldering of the lid to the frame being done by the moving of the laser beam along a given path on the lid of the package, the path being closed, wherein the soldering path is divided into segments and wherein two consecutive segments are never soldered one after the other.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
26 words
A method according to claim 1, wherein the corners of the soldering path are each included in a segment and do not constitute boundaries of segments.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
19 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein, at the boundaries of the segments, the solderings substantially overlap each other.
