A semiconductor device includes a pre-molded leadframe mounting substrate. The substrate includes a die pad (configured to have a semiconductor die mounted thereon) and a first electrically conductive pad and a second electrically conductive pad. A strip of insulating material is molded between the first and second electrically conductive pads to provide a mutually electrically insulation and extends in a longitudinal direction with the first electrically conductive pad and the second electrically conductive pad lying on opposite sides of the strip of insulating material. A semiconductor die is arranged on the die pad in register with the strip of insulating material. A single electrically conductive ribbon extending in register with the strip of insulating material electrically couples the semiconductor die with both the first and second electrically conductive pads to provide a common current flow path from the semiconductor die towards the first and the second electrically conductive pads.

A device comprising a first package and a second package coupled to the first package. The first package includes a first substrate, at least one gradient interconnect structure coupled to the first substrate, and a first integrated device coupled to the first substrate. The second package includes a second substrate and a second integrated device coupled to the second substrate. The second substrate is coupled to the at least one gradient interconnect structure.

A semiconductor package includes a semiconductor die including circuitry electrically coupled to bond pads that is mounted onto a leadframe. The leadframe includes a plurality of leads and a dam bar having a transverse portion that extends between adjoining ones of the leads. The bond pads are electrically connected to the plurality of leads. A raised dam pattern is on the dam bar or on an edge of an exposed portion of a top side clip of the semiconductor package that is positioned above and connects to the semiconductor die. The raised dam pattern includes a first material that is different relative to the material of the dam bar or the clip. A mold material encapsulates the semiconductor die.

A semiconductor device includes a lead frame comprising a first terminal and a second terminal for grounding, a sealing resin which covers the lead frame, an exposed part which is a part of the second terminal and is exposed from the sealing resin and a conductive material which covers the surface of the sealing resin and contacts the second terminal at the exposed part.

A semiconductor package that includes a conductive can, a power semiconductor device electrically and mechanically attached to the inside surface of the can, and an IC semiconductor device copackaged with the power semiconductor device inside the can.

A semiconductor device includes an insulating layer having a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface. The semiconductor device includes at least one semiconductor element located on a side of the first surface. The semiconductor device includes a first metal sinter and a second metal sinter. The first metal sinter is in contact with the first surface of the insulating layer and the semiconductor element, and bonds the insulating layer and the semiconductor element. The second metal sinter is in contact with the second surface of the insulating layer.

A wiring substrate includes a first metal plate and a second electrode. The first metal plate includes a first electrode, a wiring, and a mount portion for an electronic component. The mount portion includes an upper surface of the wiring. The second electrode is joined to an upper surface of the first electrode. The first electrode is solid. The second electrode is solid.

A device includes a relative temperature detector configured to determine a temperature difference between a device temperature sensed near a switch device and an ambient temperature sensed outside the switch device. The relative temperature detector is configured to generate a relative temperature output signal based on comparing the temperature difference to a relative temperature threshold. A power detector is configured to generate a power level signal based on comparing an indication of switch power of the switch device to a power threshold. The power level signal specifies whether the indication of switch power is above or below the power threshold. A thermal capacity control is configured to disable the switch device based on the power level signal specifying that the indication of switch power is above the power threshold and based on the relative temperature output signal indicating the temperature difference is above the relative temperature threshold.

A multi-chip module (MCM) package includes a leadframe including half-etched lead terminals including a full-thickness and half-etched portion, and second lead terminals including a thermal pad(s). A first die is attached by a dielectric die attach material to the half-etched lead terminals. The first die includes first bond pads coupled to first circuitry configured for receiving a control signal and for outputting a coded signal and a transmitter. The second die includes second bond pads coupled to second circuitry configured for a receiver with a gate driver. The second die is attached by a conductive die attach material to the thermal pad. Bond wires include die-to-die bond wires between a portion of the first and second bond pads. A high-voltage isolation device is between the transmitter and receiver. A mold compound encapsulates the first and the second die.

Semiconductor chips are arranged on an elongated substrate and encapsulated by an insulating encapsulation. Electrically conductive formations and electrically conductive plating lines are plated on the insulating encapsulation using, for example, Laser Direct Structuring (LDS) or Direct Copper Interconnect (DCI) material. The electrically conductive plating lines include first transverse plating lines as well as second plating lines branching out from the first plating lines towards the electrically conductive formations. A first partial cutting step is then performed to form grooves which remove the first plating lines. An insulating material is dispensed in the grooves to encapsulate the end portions of the second plating lines. A second cutting step median along the groove and through the elongate substrate is performed to produce singulated semiconductor devices (such as “die pad up” Quad-Flat No-lead (QFN) packages). End portions of the second plating lines are encapsulated by the insulating material.
