Abstract
An electronic device is formed on a chip of semiconductor material covered by a layer of insulating material. Metal interconnection elements form, on the insulating layer, connection pads to which a soldering material is applied. To permit good heat dissipation, the device has a metal plate partially incorporated in the insulating layer and having a surface which is coplanar with the pads and to which soldering material is applied. The electronic device is secured to a mounting substrate having a corresponding metal plate.
