ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates generally to a new apparatus and method for encapsulating ceramic chip carriers. More particularly, the invention encompasses an apparatus and a method for providing a fluid-tight, non-hermetic seal to a ceramic chip carrier utilizing dual surfaces. This is done by using the corner edges of the chip carrier, i.e., by using not only a minimal amount of the top-surface real estate of the chip carrier, but also the side-walls of the chip carrier to create the dual surface seal. This dual surface seal can be both hermetic and non-hermetic.
