Abstract

Abstract PCT No. PCT/JP92/00745 Sec. 371 Date Jul. 6, 1993 Sec. 102(e) Date Jul. 6, 1993 PCT Filed Jun. 11, 1992 PCT Pub. No. WO93/00705 PCT Pub. Date Jan. 7, 1993.A package structure in which conductive layers are provided on the lower surface of a circuit substrate provided with a semiconductor element mounted on the upper surface thereof, which conductive layers are connected to a conductive seal portion via conductive through holes, whereby both satisfactory air-tightness and satisfactory electromagnetic shielding characteristics of the package structure can be obtained. Projections consisting of high-temperature solder are formed as externally connecting electrodes, whereby a surface packaging operation can be carried out smoothly.
