The present disclosure is directed to a semiconductor package including a first laser direct structuring (LDS) resin layer and a second LDS resin layer on the first LDS resin layer. Respective surfaces of the first LDS resin layer and the second LDS resin layer are patterned utilizing an LDS process by exposing the respective surfaces to a laser. Patterning the first and second LDS resin layers, respectively, activates additive material present within the first and second LDS resin layers, respectively, converting the additive material from a non-conductive state to a conductive state. The LDS process is followed by a chemical plating step and an electrolytic plating process to form conductive structure coupled to a plurality of die within the first and second LDS resin layers. A molding compound layer is formed on surfaces of the conductive structures and covers the surfaces of the conductive structures. After these steps have been completed, the first LDS resin layer and the second LDS resin layer are singulated along channels filled with conductive material.

A semiconductor device includes: a main wiring wire electrically connected to a semiconductor element; a reinforcing wire connected to the semiconductor element, the reinforcing wire positioned on the same side as the semiconductor element or on the opposite side of the semiconductor element, with respect to the main wiring wire in a cross-sectional view; and a sealing resin configured to cover the semiconductor element, the main wiring wire, and the reinforcing wire. The reinforcing wire is connected to a plurality of portions of the semiconductor element, or both end portions of the reinforcing wire are positioned inside an outline of the semiconductor element in a plan view.

The present disclosure is directed to a leadframe package having a side solder ball contact and methods of manufacturing the same. A plurality of solder balls are coupled to recesses in a leadframe before encapsulation and singulation. After singulation, a portion of each solder ball is exposed on sidewalls of the package. This ensures that the sidewalls of the leads are solder wettable, which allows for the formation of stronger joints when the package is coupled to a substrate. This increased adhesion reduces resistance at the joints and also mitigates the effects of expansion of the components in the package such that delamination is less likely to occur. As a result, packages with a side solder ball contact have increased life cycle expectancies.

The connecting strip is fixed at the ends to a support carrying a die with the convex side facing the support. During bonding, the connecting strip undergoes elastic deformation and presses against the die, thus electrically connecting the at least one die to the support.
