Abstract: A strip-shaped substrate made from a film includes a plurality of units for producing chip carriers. Each unit has a chip island for fixing a semiconductor chip, electrodes for electrical connection of the semiconductor chip, and through-openings for structuring the unit. At least one through-opening forms an anchoring edge for a casting compound for encapsulating the semiconductor chip. A surface section of the film abutting the through-opening is chamfered to form the anchoring edge. The anchoring edge protrudes past the side of the film on which the chip island is arranged.
