Abstract: This document discusses, among other things, a semiconductor die having a first conductive bump coupled to a first electrical terminal at a first die surface of a semiconductor die and a dielectric substantially covering the first die surface and substantially surrounding the first conductive bump. A surface of the dielectric can include a recessed terminal area, and a second electrical terminal can be coupled to the first conductive bump in the recessed terminal area.

Abstract: An integrated transistor module includes a lead frame that defines at least one low-side land and at least one high-side land. A stepped portion of the lead frame mechanically and electrically interconnects the low-side and high-side lands. A low-side transistor is mounted upon the low-side land with its drain electrically connected to the low-side land. A high-side transistor is mounted upon the high-side land with its source electrically connected to the high-side land.

Abstract: A semiconductor die package is disclosed. In one embodiment, the semiconductor die package has a substrate. It includes (i) a leadframe structure including a die attach region with a die attach surface and a lead having a lead surface, and (ii) a molding material. The die attach surface and the lead surface are exposed through the molding material. A semiconductor die is on the die attach region, and the semiconductor die is electrically coupled to the lead. The die attach surface and the lead surface can be in different planes.

Abstract: A chip device that includes a leadframe, a die and a mold compound. The backside of the die is metallized and exposed through a window defined within a mold compound that encapsulates the die when it is coupled to the leadframe. Leads on the leadframe are coupled to source and gate terminals on the die while the metallized backside of the die serves as the drain terminals.

Abstract: A semiconductor device including a leadframe and a die coupled thereto. A drain pad is coupled to the drain region of the die in a body that substantially envelopes the leadframe and the die. The body includes a window defined therein. The body is placed around the leadframe and the die such that a surface of the drain pad opposite the die is exposed through the window.

Abstract: A packaging assembly for semiconductor devices and a method for making such packaging is described. The invention provides a non-Pb bump design during a new flip-chip method of packaging. The design uses special conductive materials in a stud form, rather than a solder ball containing Pb. This configuration maintains a desirable solder thickness between the die and the leadframe and forms a high standoff by restricting solder wettabilty on the leadframe side. This configuration also absorbs any stress and protects the die from cracking. The invention also provides methods for making such semiconductor packages.

Abstract: A packaging technique that significantly reduces package resistance. According to the invention, lead frames external to the package are brought in direct contact to solder balls on the surface of the silicon die inside the package molding, eliminating resistive wire interconnections. The packaging technique of the present invention is particularly suitable for power transistors.
