  • Patent number: 6228548
    Abstract: A novel multichip semiconductor package, and method of making is provided that has a plurality of semiconductor chips fabricated in electrical isolation one from another integrally on a singular coextensive substrate useful for numerous and varied semiconductor chip applications. The semiconductor chips, instead of being singulated into a plurality of single-chip packages, are kept as integrally formed together and are thereafter electrically connected together so as to form a larger circuit. Encapsulation follows so as to form a single, multichip package. Common signals of the plurality of semiconductor chips are bussed together in electrical common across the substrate to a common electrode suitable for electrically providing the signal to another, external circuit, such as a PWB. The commnon bussing is achieved by conductive leads disposed across the substrate in pair sets having an extended portion that accommodates the common electrode in contact therewith.
