Abstract:
A method of obtaining a high-density module (4) from modular electronic components encapsulated in flat monoblock packages (1) in which the elements constituting the components are buried and from which project laterally conductive connecting leads (3) of said elements, in which method the packages are stacked and buried in an insulative block corresponding to at least one module so that the projecting connecting leads of the stacked packages are flush with a surface of the block, on at least one face of said block on which, as required, are formed conductive tracks interconnecting leads and/or contacts for connecting the leads with connecting means external to the module, said method being characterized in that it includes, before stacking the packages (1A), an operation of modifying the connecting leads of the packages in order to reduce their overall size and an operation of reducing the height of the packages by thinning their respective bases.
