Its main materials include alumina, beryllium oxide, aluminum nitride, etc. Such ceramic shells use HTCC or LTCC ceramics as circuit substrates, with internal metallized vias or side metallization conduction, and then use metal parts to achieve isolation, airtightness, and heat dissipation functions.

[0003] Existing SMD ceramic shells generally consist of ceramic parts, sealing rings, heat sinks, and electrodes. Among them, the electrodes are mostly directly brazed at the bottom in the shape of bosses or filled with metal paste in the ceramic parts for hole filling, and upper and lower welding electrode plates are used for conduction. However, neither of these two schemes can meet the usage scenarios of high-voltage and high-current chip packaging. Under the impact of continuous high current, obvious leakage increase or arcing phenomena will occur, resulting in packaging failure. Content of the Utility Model
