Patent ID: 7787250

Claim:
A miniaturization chip module, comprising: a substrate; at least one surface-mount device (SMD chip unit having a peripheral edge and mounted on said substrate; a metallic cover having a top lid and a plurality of side sheets extending at a periphery of said top lid towards said substrate, said metallic cover being positioned with said top lid thereof above said at least one SMD chip unit and with lower edges of said plurality of side sheets secured to said substrate in surrounding relationship with said at least one SMD chip unit, wherein said top lid has at least one sizing hole and a plurality of venting holes formed thereat, the venting holes being disposed around the sizing hole, wherein the sizing hole and the venting holes are positioned above the SMD chip unit, and wherein a glue receiving gap is formed between a portion of said top lid having said sizing hole and said plurality of venting holes and a top surface of said at least one SMD chip unit; and a glue, said glue filling said glue receiving gap between said top lid of said metallic cover and said top surface of said at least one SMD chip unit, said plurality of venting holes preventing said glue from escaping beyond said peripheral edge of said at least one SMD chip unit.
