Abstract: A method of producing a semiconductor device of the present invention is applicable to a multilayer wafer for leadless chip carrier packages and breaks it on a package basis. The method begins with a step of forming a generally V-shaped groove in one major surfaces of the wafer in the direction of thickness of the wafer. A weak, cleaving portion is formed in the other major surface of the wafer in alignment with the groove. A cleaving force is exerted on the wafer to thereby form a break in the cleaving portion, so that the wafer is caused to break from the groove toward the cleaving portion in the direction of thickness of the wafer. The cleaving portion may be replaced with a strong, non-cleaving portion, in which case the break is formed in the interface between the non-cleaving portion and the wafer due to a difference in cleaving force.

Abstract: A semiconductor device having lead terminals bent in a J-shape is disclosed. A radiating plate having a recess formed on an outer peripheral portion thereof is exposed to a lower face of a resin member and free ends of outer portions of the lead terminals are positioned in the recess of the radiating plate. The free ends of the outer portions of the lead terminals and the recess of the radiating plate are isolated from each other by projections of the resin member. Since the radiating plate is exposed to the lower face of the resin member, the heat radiating property is high whereas the radiating plate and the lead terminals are not short-circuited to each other at all.

The radiating plate is formed in such a shape that a central portion thereof is positioned higher than both end portions thereof. A pellet is mounted on a lower face of the central portion of the radiating plate, and an upper face of the central portion of the radiating plate is exposed to the top of a resin member. Since the upper face of the central portion of the radiating plate which has the pellet mounted on the lower face thereof is exposed from the resin member, heat generated by the pellet can be radiated efficiently.
