Semiconductor element with disk-shaped housing

摘要

A disk-shaped housing for a semiconductor element comprising a cup (1) of insulating material with an opening (2) at the bottom. Through this opening (2) passes a contact surface (4) of one of two plate type connecting bodies (3), between which lies a pressure-contacted semiconductor body (14). Both connecting bodies (3, 5) comprise radially and axially oriented seal surfaces (8, 9; 11, 12), against which there abuts under pressure an elastic ring (13) which surrounds the semiconductor body. The cup is filled with sealing compound (18); the semiconductor body is thus protected against penetration of the sealing compound.
