A manufacturing method includes the step of laminating a sheet assembly onto chips arranged on a processing tape, where the sheet assembly has a multilayer structure including a base and a sinter-bonding sheet and is laminated so that the sinter-bonding sheet faces the chips, and subsequently removing the base B from the sinter-bonding sheet. The chips on the processing tape are picked up each with a portion of the sinter-bonding sheet adhering to the chip, to give sinter-bonding material layer-associated chips. The sinter-bonding material layer-associated chips are temporarily secured through the sinter-bonding material layer to a substrate. The sinter-bonding material layers lying between the temporarily secured chips and the substrate are converted through a heating process into sintered layers, to bond the chips to the substrate. The semiconductor device manufacturing method is suitable for efficiently supplying a sinter-bonding material to semiconductor chips while reducing loses of the sinter-bonding material.

A microelectronic device, in a multirow gull-wing chip scale package, has a die connected to intermediate pads by wire bonds. The intermediate pads are free of photolithographically-defined structures. An encapsulation material at least partially surrounds the die and the wire bonds, and contacts the intermediate pads. Inner gull-wing leads and outer gull-wing leads, located outside of the encapsulation material, are attached to the intermediate pads. The gull-wing leads have external attachment surfaces opposite from the intermediate pads. The external attachment surfaces of the outer gull-wing leads are located outside of the external attachment surfaces of the inner gull-wing leads. The microelectronic device is formed by mounting the die on a carrier, forming the intermediate pads without using a photolithographic process, and forming the wire bonds. The encapsulation material is formed, and the carrier is subsequently removed, exposing the intermediate pads. The gull-wing leads are formed on the intermediate pads.
