Abstract

A ceramic package and mounting structure which requires less surface area on a heat sink and improves heat transfer to the heat sink. Each ceramic package has a top side and a bottom side with the bottom side being flat and smooth. The bottom side can be a polished ceramic, or metal layer which is plated or brazed to the bottom side. The mounting structure includes a clamp and a spring in pressure engagement with the top side of the package for maintaining the package in pressure engagement with the heat sink.
