Abstract
A hermetic high-current electronic package includes a package body and a base plate hermetically coupled to the package body. A semiconductor device is thermally mounted to the base plate and has a high-current output. A high-current input/output (I/O) terminal is bonded to the high-current output of the semiconductor device by a strap terminal that is an integral high current heatsink terminal. The high-current I/O terminal passes through a hole formed in a sidewall of the package body. A ceramic seal surrounds the high-current I/O terminal and has a first surface hermetically bonded to an outer surface of the sidewall of the package body. A metal hermetic seal washer surrounds the high-current I/O terminal and is bonded to a second surface of the ceramic seal and bonded to a portion of the high-current I/O terminal that passes through the metal hermetic seal washer.
