ABSTRACT:
A high power semiconductor package which includes a substantially continuous mounting surface for efficient thermal mounting to a heat sink and which can be electrically isolated or non-isolated. The package includes a metal header having a cylindrical section and a peripheral mounting flange. The cylindrical section has an annular portion adjacent to the mounting flange into which is press fitted a thermally conductive disk having an outer surface which is substantially coplanar with the mounting surface of the flange. One or more semiconductor devices are mounted within the cylindrical section in thermal communication with the conductive disk, and are electrically connected to leads which outwardly extend from the top of the header. An encapsulant can be provided within the header to enclose the semiconductor devices, and an electrically insulating cap can be secured to the cylindrical section and through which the leads extend.
