An electronic device includes a rectangular ceramic package structure having opposite first and second sides, an interior cavity that extends to an opening in the second side, opposite third and fourth sides spaced along a first direction, opposite fifth and sixth sides spaced along an orthogonal second direction, and non-conductive indents extending into the third and fourth sides. The device also includes a semiconductor die in the cavity, a lid that covers the opening and seals the cavity, a conductive terminal having a planar side exposed along the first side that is electrically coupled to a circuit of the semiconductor die and extends to a first one of the non-conductive indents, and conductive pins spaced apart from the conductive terminal and extending outward from the first side of the ceramic package structure along a third direction.

Hybrid chip carrier package

In examples, a semiconductor package comprises a ceramic substrate and a horizontal metal layer covered by the ceramic substrate. The metal layer is configured to carry signals in the 5 GHz to 38 GHz frequency range. The package also includes a vertical castellation on an outer surface of the ceramic substrate, the castellation coupled to the metal layer and having a height ranging from 0.10 mm to 0.65 mm.

High-frequency ceramic packages with modified castellation and metal layer architectures

In examples, a semiconductor package comprises a ceramic substrate and first and second metal layers covered by the ceramic substrate. The first metal layer is configured to carry signals at least in a 20 GHz to 28 GHz frequency range. The package comprises a semiconductor die positioned above the first and second metal layers and coupled to the first metal layer. The package comprises a ground shield positioned in a horizontal plane between the semiconductor die and the first metal layer, the ground shield including an orifice above a portion of the first metal layer. The package includes a metal seal ring coupled to a top surface of the ceramic substrate, the metal seal ring having a segment that is vertically aligned with a segment of the ground shield. The segment of the ground shield is between the orifice of the ground shield and a horizontal center of the ground shield. The package comprises a metal lid coupled to a top surface of the metal seal ring.
