Claims
- 1. A ceramic substrate for use as a semiconductor package comprising:
- a plate member having a first face portion and having a peripheral surface located adjacent said first face portion and a stepped edge portion formed of a first and second crest, said edge portion being located between said peripheral surface and said first face portion so as to increase impact resistance to chipping and cracking of said ceramic substrate upon being impacted with an adjacent ceramic substrate wherein said first and second crest have a radius of curvature of between 0.04 and 0.06 mm inclusive.
- 2. A ceramic substrate as set forth in claim 1, wherein said peripheral surface has a notched portion formed therein for assisting insertion of said plate member into a package.
- 3. A ceramic substrate as set forth in claim 1, wherein said plate member further comprises a second face portion opposite said first face portion, said second face portion having a cavity formed therein for insertion of a semiconductor element.
- 4. A ceramic substrate as set forth in claim 1, wherein said first and second crests form an approximately 0.1 mm step.
- 5. A ceramic substrate as set forth in claim 3, wherein said first and second crests form an approximately 0.1 mm step.
