Abstract:
1. An electronic component, comprising; a first substrate having a surface at least one integrated circuit, and a plurality of microscopically small contact surfaces configured in an arbitrary distribution on said surface of said first substrate; an insulating joining layer; and a second substrate forming a housing, said second substrate having a plurality of symmetrically configured external contact surfaces, a plurality of interconnects, and a plurality of through-contacts formed therein; said second substrate including a rewiring insulated from said plurality of said interconnects on said second substrate; said insulating joining layer mechanically joining said second substrate to said surface of said first substrate and forming a surface-to-surf ace, hermetically sealed contact; said second substrate having a plurality of contact connection surfaces being surface-to-surface contact connected to said plurality of said contact surfaces of said first substrate in an electrically conductive manner; and said plurality of said contact connection surfaces of said second substrate being connected via said rewiring and via said plurality of said through-contacts in said second substrate to said plurality of said symmetrically configured external contact surfaces of said second substrate.
