Air cavity package using high temperature silicone adhesive

Abstract:

An air cavity package includes a dielectric frame that is formed from an alumina ceramic, a polyimide, or a semi-crystalline thermoplastic. The dielectric frame is joined to a flange using a high temperature silicone adhesive. Leads may be bonded to the dielectric frame using a high temperature organic adhesive, a direct bond, or by brazing.
