Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor element; a group of back-inner terminals coupled with the semiconductor element through bonding wires and arranged in an area array shape so as to be exposed inside of the bottom; a group of back-outer terminals arranged outside the group of back-inner terminals; a group of front-outer terminals located immediately above the back-outer terminals to be exposed from the front surface, which are electrically coupled with the back-outer terminals located immediately therebelow through coupling conductors, respectively; and a sealing resin which seals the semiconductor element and bonding wires and non-exposed portions of said back-inner terminals, back-outer terminals and front-outer terminals. On at least the respective terminal faces of said back-inner terminals, back-outer terminals and front-outer terminals, noble-metal plated layers are formed.

Abstract: Disclosed are a method for manufacturing a laminated lead frame and a laminated lead frame manufactured thereby, wherein lead frame single plates to be laminated one on top of the other can be reliably bonded together with a relatively light load. Under the method for manufacturing a laminated lead frame by means of stacking and bonding lead frame single plates 10 and 11, each of which has been processed into a predetermined shape, a plurality of protuberance sections 12 are formed in at least one of mutually-opposing surfaces of the lead frame single plates 10 and 11 that vertically pair up with each other. The mutually-opposing lead frame single plates 11, 12 are bonded together via the protuberance sections 12.
