Abstract

The invention relates to an arrangement for an electronic component operable at low temperatures, in particular, to a radiation sensitive semiconductor component. The arrangement consists of a housing for the component and of a cooler which is in communication with the housing and operates in accordance with the Joule-Thomson effect. The invention consists in that there is arranged between the cooler and the adjacent housing wall a super-insulation comprised of a single- or multi-layered foil with low thermal conductivity and capacity and high thermal-transfer resistance.
