A pre-soldered circuit carrier includes a carrier having a metal die attach surface, a plated solder region on the metal die attach surface, wherein a maximum thickness of the plated solder region is at most 50 m, the plated solder region has a lower melting point than the first bond pad, and the plated solder region forms one or more intermetallic phases with the die attach surface at a soldering temperature that is above the melting point of the plated solder region.

In one example, a semiconductor device includes a substrate that comprises a substrate conductor material. An electronic component has a first component terminal that comprises a first component terminal conductor material and a second component terminal that comprises a second component terminal conductor material. An interconnect comprises an interconnect conductor material, a component end, and a substrate end. The second component terminal is attached to the substrate with a first intermetallic bond, the component end of the interconnect is attached to the first component terminal with a second intermetallic bond, and the substrate end of the interconnect is attached to the substrate with a third intermetallic bond. Other examples and related methods are also disclosed herein.

There is disclosed a clip for a semi-conductor device. At least part of the clip is formed from a metallic foam.
