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.

An integrated circuit and method of making an integrated circuit is provided. The integrated circuit includes an electrically conductive pad having a generally planar top surface that includes a cavity having a bottom surface and sidewalls extending from the bottom surface of the cavity to the top surface of the pad. An electronic device is attached to the top surface of the electrically conductive pad. A wire bond is attached from the electronic device to the bottom surface of the cavity. A molding compound encapsulates the electronic device.

A semiconductor device comprises a lead, a board, and an electrically conductive layer on the board. The lead comprises a longitudinal axis and is soldered to the electrically conductive layer. The semiconductor device further comprises a first solder dam edge and a second solder dam edge, each positioned on the lead not more than 10 mils apart from each other along the longitudinal axis.

A leadframe has a die pad area and an outer layer of a first metal having a first oxidation potential. The leadframe is placed in contact with a solution containing a second metal having a second oxidation potential, the second oxidation potential being more negative than the first oxidation potential. Radiation energy is then applied to the die pad area of the leadframe contacted with the solution to cause a local increase in temperature of the leadframe. As a result of the temperature increase, a layer of said second metal is selectively provided at the die pad area of the leadframe by a galvanic displacement reaction. An oxidation of the outer layer of the leadframe is then performed to provide an enhancing layer which counters device package delamination.

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.

A first frame includes portions of a first short side surface and a first long side surface, in which a plurality of conductor layers to which a plurality of DC electrode terminals are connected, and a plurality of insulating layers arranged between the plurality of conductor layers are stacked. Further, a second frame includes portions of a second short side surface and a second long side surface.

A light emitting device includes: a base body including two conductive members, a resin body, and a fiber member placed inside the resin body, and a light-emitting element. The resin body includes an isolation section located between the two conductive members, and includes a pair of sandwiching portions sandwiching the isolation section. The fiber member has a length which is greater than a distance between the two conductive members, and is located at least in an adjoining region of at least one of the pair of sandwiching portions, the adjoining region adjoining the isolation section. In the adjoining region, the fiber member extends in a direction which is non-orthogonal to a direction in which that the pair of sandwiching portions extend.

A lead frame for an integrated electronic device includes a die pad made of a first metallic material. A top coating layer formed by a second metallic material is arranged on a top surface of the die pad. The second metallic material has an oxidation rate lower than the first metallic material. The top coating layer leaves exposed a number of corner portions of the top surface of the die pad. A subsequent heating operation, for example occurring in connection with wirebonding, causes an oxidized layer to form on the corner portions of the top surface of the die pad at a position in contact with the top coating layer.

A packaged semiconductor device includes a routable molded lead frame structure with a surface finish layer. In one embodiment, the routable molded lead frame structure includes a first laminated layer including the surface finish layer, vias connected to the surface finish layer, and a first resin layer covering the vias leaving the top surface of the surface finish layer exposed. A second laminated layer includes second conductive patterns connected to the vias, bump pads connected to the second conductive patterns, and a second resin layer covering one side of the first resin layer, the second conductive patterns and the bump pads. A semiconductor die is electrically connected to the surface finish layer and an encapsulant covers the semiconductor die and another side of the first resin layer. The surface finish layer provides a customizable and improved bonding structure for connecting the semiconductor die to the routable molded lead frame structure.

A semiconductor device comprises; a lead frame having leads and a die pad; a printed circuit board including an electrode for the connection of each of the leads and the die pad, a wiring pattern, and an opening exposing a part of a surface of the die pad; the semiconductor element for processing a high frequency signal, mounted on a surface of a metal block bonded to the surface of the die pad exposed through the opening, and connected to the wiring pattern with a metal wire; electronic components connected to the wiring pattern and mounted on a surface of the printed circuit board; and a sealing resin to seal the printed circuit board, the semiconductor element, the electronic components, and the metal wire so as to expose rear surfaces of the leads and the die pad.
