Abstract: A lead frame for a resin-seal type semiconductor device, which includes a semiconductor element having an electrode, a bonding wire connected to the electrode of the semiconductor element, and a sealing resin covering and sealing the semiconductor element and the bonding wire. The lead frame includes a substrate frame, a four-layer plating, and a three-layer plating. The substrate frame include leads, a connection region, which is sealed by the sealing resin and connected to the bonding wire, and an exposed region, which is not sealed by the sealing resin. A four-layer plating is applied to a portion of the substrate frame that is to be connected to the bonding wire and sealed by the sealing resin. A three-layer plating is applied to an exposed region of the substrate frame that is exposed from the sealing resin.

Abstract: A lead frame base is coated with a four-layer plating. The four-layer plating includes an underlayer plating (Ni), a palladium plating, a silver plating and a gold plating arranged in this order from bottom to top.

Abstract: A highly reliable plated lead finishing structure for a semiconductor part using a Pd film or a Pd alloy film, instead of a traditional solder plating material, as a brazing metal, without causing a problem of short-circuits between terminals due to whiskers, is provided. In the plated lead finishing structure of the invention, when a plated film having a thickness of not larger than 0.3 ?m is formed using Pd or a Pd alloy (26), instead of a conventional solder-plating material as a brazing metal, on the surfaces of the external connection terminals (10, 12) of a semiconductor part using copper or a copper alloy-based material, the film is plated without interposing any underlying layer or any intermediate metal layer between the material and the Pd— or Pd alloy-plated layer. In some cases, Au or an Au alloy (28) is further plated and has a thickness of not larger than 0.1 ?m on the plated film.
