A method of forming a semiconductor device includes attaching a semiconductor die to a flag of a leadframe and forming a conductive connector over a portion of the semiconductor die and a portion of the flag. A conductive connection between a first bond pad of the semiconductor die and the flag is formed by way of the conductive connector. A second bond pad of the semiconductor die is connected to a conductive lead of the plurality by way of a bond wire.

A semiconductor package may include a substrate including a first coupling terminal and a second coupling terminal, a first chip disposed on the substrate, the first chip including a first pad and a second pad, and a connection structure connecting the first coupling terminal to the first pad.
