Patent ID: 7825524

Claim:
A system, comprising: a housing; a chip structure situated in a central region inside the housing; metal bodies used as connecting surfaces, the metal bodies being conductively connected via bond connections inside the housing to the chip structure, and the metal bodies being exposed on an underside of the housing; wherein a first surface region of at least one of the metal bodies is fixedly soldered to a conductive section of a printed circuit board and a second surface region of the at least one of the metal bodies is not fixedly connected to the printed circuit board, the solder wets a larger area of the first surface region than that of the conductive section of the printed circuit board to which the first surface region is fixedly soldered, the first and second surface regions being in a plane parallel to the printed circuit board and the first surface region being situated closer to the central region of the housing than the second surface region, and wherein a bond connection between the at least one of the metal bodies and the chip structure contacts the at least one of the metal bodies in a contact region directly above the second surface region which is not fixedly connected to the printed circuit board.
