Implementations of semiconductor packages may include: a first substrate having two or more die coupled to a first side, a clip coupled to each of the two or more die on the first substrate and a second substrate having two or more die coupled to a first side of the second substrate. A clip may be coupled to each of the two or more die on the second substrate. The package may include two or more spacers coupled to the first side of the first substrate and a lead frame between the first substrate and the second substrate and a molding compound. A second side of each of the first substrate and the second substrate may be exposed through the molding compound. A perimeter of the first substrate and a perimeter of the second substrate may not fully overlap when coupled through the two or more spacers.

Various example embodiments concern an integrated circuit (IC) package having a clip with a protruding tough-shaped finger portion. The clip can be used in various IC packages including, for example, soft-soldered compact power packages such as rectifiers with specified surge current capability. Such embodiments can be implemented to allow for a visual inspection capability of the soldering area for connecting a lead frame, via the clip, to a surface of the IC package die, while still providing sufficient thermal mass to limit the temperature increase during forward surge current loads. This results in a simple to manufacture design without compromising too much on performance.

In one embodiment, a method can include coupling a gate and a source of a first die to a lead frame. The first die can include the gate and the source that are located on a first surface of the first die and a drain that is located on a second surface of the first die that is opposite the first surface. In addition, the method can include coupling a source of a second die to the drain of the first die. The second die can include a gate and the source that are located on a first surface of the second die and a drain that is located on a second surface of the second die that is opposite the first surface.
