Abstract: A method of manufacturing, a carrier, and a semiconductor package are provided. The method involves depositing a plurality of conductive vias, applying a molding material over the lead frame, grinding the molding material to expose the plurality of conductive vias, and depositing a metalized pattern over the molding material. The carrier is manufacture by this method and the semiconductor package is formed based on the carrier.

Abstract: A mass flow sensor module and method of manufacture thereof are provided, wherein a semiconductor sensor die is integrated within an enhanced molded housing structure that maintains an air tight seal and protects the die from abrasive wear, and which also provides laminar flow of the liquid gas to be sensed. Since the die is embedded in the substrate; there is no need for a spacer for reducing die thickness induced flow turbulence. Moreover, the die surface is at the same level as the top surface of the substrate, such that there is no performance impact due to die thickness variation and therefore no die attach bond line thickness control requirement. In one embodiment, a thermal enhancement capability is provided.

Abstract: A method of manufacture and a substrate for sensor packages is provided. The method involves premolding a lead frame with strips having V-grooves; cutting the substrate partially, and plating the exposed surfaces of the lead frame. The method subsequently involves attaching a die to a dies pad and connecting wires between the die and leads to form a sensor package. The sensor package is separated from the substrate by snapping along the score line. The substrate for assembly of sensor packages as well as substrate of sensor packages is manufactured using at least part of the method of manufacture.

Abstract: A radio-frequency shielding cavity package is set forth along with a method of manufacturing thereof. According to one embodiment, the radio-frequency shielding cavity package comprises a metallic leadframe and plastic molded body. The leadframe has a plurality of contact pads extending from top to bottom surfaces thereof, at least one contact pad on the top surface being surrounded by metal for shielding the contact pad from external electric fields.

Abstract: An innovative end cap for IC trays includes a bottom and side walls. The side walls extend upwardly from the bottom and form a tray-accommodating space. The innovative end cap includes a plurality of buffering ribs and buffering grooves on its surfaces. The buffering ribs and buffering grooves arranged on the end cap can fully absorb, disperse and transfer the impact energy generated during testing, storage, collision and shock of the trays which accommodate the precision semiconductor components therein, and increase impact strength and anti-dropping damage ability of the end cap. Therefore, the innovative end cap with the buffering ribs and buffering grooves can not only protect the trays and extend the service lifetime of the trays, but also give better protection to the precision semiconductor components such as Chips, IC etc in the trays.
