In one example, a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes providing a substrate having substrate terminals and providing a component having a first component terminal and a second component terminal adjacent to a first major side of the component. The method includes providing a clip structure having a first clip, a second clip, and a clip connector coupling the first clip to the second clip. The method includes coupling the first clip to the first component terminal and a first substrate terminal and coupling the second clip to a second substrate terminal. The method includes encapsulating the component, portions of the substrate, and portions of the clip structure. the method includes removing a sacrificial portion of the clip connector while leaving a first portion of the clip connector attached to the first clip and leaving a second portion of the clip connector attached to the second clip. In some examples, the first portion of the clip connector includes a first portion surface, the second portion of the clip connector includes a second portion surface, and the first portion surface and the second portion surface are exposed from a top side of the encapsulant after the removing. Other examples and related structures are also disclosed herein.

A clip, a semiconductor package, and a method are disclosed. In one example the clip includes a die attach portion having a first main face and a second main face opposite to the first main face, and at least one through-hole extending between the first and second main faces and including a curved transition from an inner wall of the at least one through-hole to the first main face.
