  • Patent number: 7528013
    Abstract: Systems and techniques to provide a high performance leadframe architecture in electronic packages. An electronic package includes an extended area for wire bonding to provide improved high-current operation. The extended area can be an extended portion of a single lead in a single-layer non-leaded leadframe, where multiple wires are connected between multiple bond pads and the single lead. The extended area can be a support bar of a leadframe that is used as bond area for ground connections in a single-layer non-leaded leadframe. The extended area can be lead regions used for wire bonding voltage output and voltage input using a reduced power dissipation topology.
    Type: Grant
