  • Patent number: 11942495
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor chip, a circuit board, a heat releasing plate, an adhesive member, and a conductive member. The circuit board transmits a signal of the semiconductor chip. The heat releasing plate has the semiconductor chip disposed thereon, and has an opening in a region on the outer side of a semiconductor chip placement region that is a region in which the semiconductor chip is disposed. The adhesive member is disposed in a region on the outer side of the opening on a different surface of the heat releasing plate from the surface on which the semiconductor chip is disposed, and bonds the circuit board and the heat releasing plate to each other.

  • Patent number: 6319749
    Abstract: In a lead frame with a reinforcing ring surrounding a semiconductor element which are electrically connected to leads through electrodes is integrally formed through suspending portions, reinforcing portions for reinforcing the suspending portions are provided on the suspending portions. Upon application of a lead frame forming technique in which a laminate plate of three or more layers is used as a base, and inner leads are formed at one side while outer leads are formed by the surface layer at the other side, the lead frame is formed by forming a ring in place of outer leads, for example. A semiconductor package is formed by mounting the lead frame on a semiconductor chip.
