Glass-to-Metal Seals
14 Pins Glass to metal hermetically sealed butterfly package
Glass to metal seals technic means sintering the glass with metal and forming a electrical connector feedthrough the metal wall of hermetically sealed packages. Generally, the material of frame/wall is Kovar which has a similar thermal expansion coefficients with sealing borosilicate glass to have a good match for heat dissipation in hermetic butterfly packages.
