  • Publication number: 20170222094
    Abstract: An electronic component, an optoelectronic component, a component arrangement, and a method for producing an electronic component are disclosed. In an embodiment, the method includes forming a sacrificial structure on a top side of a carrier by a photolithographic process from a photoresist layer, arranging an electronic semiconductor chip on the carrier after exposing the photoresist layer, molding a molded body around the sacrificial structure and around the electronic semiconductor chip such that a surface of the electronic semiconductor chip is at least partly not covered by the molded body, detaching the molded body from the carrier and removing the sacrificial structure, wherein removing the sacrificial structure results in a cutout being formed in the molded body.

  • Publication number: 20170047486
    Abstract: An optoelectronic component (100) comprises an optoelectronic semiconductor chip (10), a first contact area (31) and a second contact area (32), which is laterally offset with respect to the first contact area and is electrically insulated therefrom, and a housing element (40). The first contact area (31) is electrically conductively connected to the first semiconductor layer (21) and the second contact area (32) is electrically conductively connected to the second semiconductor layer (22) of the optoelectronic semiconductor chip. The first contact area (31) and the second contact area (32) project beyond the optoelectronic semiconductor chip laterally in each case. The housing element (40) is fixed to the first contact area (31) and the second contact area (32) in regions in which the first contact area (31) and the second contact area (32) project beyond the optoelectronic semiconductor chip laterally in each case. The housing element surrounds the optoelectronic semiconductor chip at least partly.
