Abstract
A packaged electrical component includes an electrical component having at least two electrical leads, the electrical component generating a gas during operation, and a package enclosing the electrical component with the leads extending from the package, the package consisting of at least one selectively permeable material having a relative high permeability to a gas generated within the package during operation of the electrical component and a relatively low permeability to at least one other fluid, such as water, that may be present inside and/or outside the package.
Claims17
A packaged electrical component including:
- an electrical component having at least two electrical leads, the electrical component generating a gas during operation;
- and
- a package enclosing the electrical component with the leads extending from the package, the package consisting of a selectively permeable material having a relatively high permeability to a gas generated within the package during operation of the electrical component and a relatively low permeability to at least one other gas present inside the package, the package including at least one recess for controlling the permeability of the package.
A packaged electrical component including:
- an electrical component having at least two electrical leads, the electrical component generating a gas during operation;
- and
- a package enclosing the electrical component with the leads extending from the package, the package being entirely made of selectively permeable materials having a relatively high permeability to a gas generated within the package during operation of the electrical component and a relatively low permeability to at least one other gas present inside the package, the package including means for adjusting permeability of the package.
