1. An IC package assembly comprising:
- a ceramic base having a laminated structure including first and second conductive layers;
an IC chip installed on said base and having a plurality of power source terminals electrically connected to said first conductive layer by wire bonding and a plurality of earth terminals connected to said second conductive layer by wire bonding;
a first external lead electrically connected to said first conductive layer to serve as a power source lead;
a second external lead electrically connected to said second conductive layer to serve as an earth lead;
first sealing glass means for securing said first and second external leads to said base;
a closure member; and
second sealing glass means for securing said closure member to said base and hermetically sealing said IC chip;
said first sealing glass means further comprising a sheet of first low temperature glass having a pair of openings filled with silver glass for electrically connecting said first and second external leads to said first and second conductive layers, respectively.

Abstract
A ceramic base of an IC package has a laminated structure and has two conductive layers sandwiched between insulating ceramic layers. One of the conductive layers is used as a power source layer and electrically connects a plurality of power source terminals of an IC chip to a single power source lead. The other conductive layer is used as an earth layer and electrically connects a plurality of earth terminals of the IC chip to a single earth lead.
