Abstract
Abstract An electronic circuit package which includes first and second conductive metal members and a circuit board held between the first and second metal members and having a cutout in which an electronic circuit part is accommodated and a process of producing such electronic circuit package are disclosed. With the electronic circuit package, deterioration of a high speed characteristic of an electronic circuit part accommodated in the package is minimized, and accordingly, when the electronic circuit package is applied to an IC for very high speed optical communications for use with an optical repeater or the like, a very high speed system can be realized. By assembling the components in accordance with a predetermined order, facility in process of production and improvement in reliability of products are attained.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
151 words
A process of producing an electronic circuit package, comprising: a first step of applying, to the opposite faces of a circuit board having a cutout in which an IC chip is to be accommodated, a first metal member having an opening at a location thereof corresponding to said cutout and a second metal member having a space to which the IC chip is to be secured; a second step of securing the IC chip and a metal block to which a ground port of said IC chip is to be connected to said second metal member in said cutout; a third step of connecting said IC chip to said circuit board and metal block by means of wire bonding; and a fourth step of covering over said opening of said first metal member with a lid member made of a metal; said first to fourth steps being proceeded in this order.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim

Claim 7
Dependent Claim
37 words
A process of producing an electronic circuit package according to claim 5, wherein said IC chip and metal block are secured to said second metal member by a scrubbing joining technique using an AuSn eutectic crystal material.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
35 words
A process of producing an electronic circuit package according to claim 5, wherein said IC chip and metal block are secured to said second metal member by a scrubbing joining technique using silver paste bond.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
99 words
A process of producing an electronic circuit package according to claim 2, wherein an additional step of joining a side plate having an introducing hole for the introduction of an optical fiber to a side face of said first or second metal member is provided either in said first step or between said first and second steps, and another additional step of introducing a pipe member in and to which an optical fiber is inserted and secured into said cutout by way of said introducing hole of said side plate and joining said pipe member to said side plate.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
36 words
A process of producing an electronic circuit package according to claim 8, wherein said side plate and pipe member are made of kovar, and said pipe member is joined to said side plate by laser welding.
