A semiconductor package includes a semiconductor die, a substrate for supporting the semiconductor die, an encapsulant covering the semiconductor die and at least part of the substrate, and a die attach material attaching the semiconductor die to the substrate. The die attach material includes molecules having a first functional group with at least one free electron pair and a second functional group chemically reacted or reactable with the encapsulant in a way that promotes adhesion with the encapsulant. A corresponding method of manufacturing the semiconductor package is also described.

An electrical connection wire connects an electrical connection pad of an electrical chip and an electrical connection pad of a carrier substrate to which the electronic chip is mounted. A dielectric layer surrounds at least the bonding wire. The dielectric layer may be a dielectric sheath or a hardened liquid dielectric material. A dielectric material may also cover at least a portion of the electrical chip and carrier substrate. A liquid electrically conductive material is deposited and hardened to form a local conductive shield surrounding the dielectric layer at the bonding wire.

A method for making a microelectronic unit includes forming a plurality of wire bonds on a first surface in the form of a conductive bonding surface of a structure comprising a patternable metallic element. The wire bonds are formed having bases joined to the first surface and end surfaces remote from the first surface. The wire bonds have edge surfaces extending between the bases and the end surfaces. The method also includes forming a dielectric encapsulation layer over a portion of the first surface of the conductive layer and over portions of the wire bonds such that unencapsulated portions of the wire bonds are defined by end surfaces or portions of the edge surfaces that are unconvered by the encapsulation layer. The metallic element is patterned to form first conductive elements beneath the wire bonds and insulated from one another by portions of the encapsulation layer.
