Abstract: A semiconductor package includes a lead frame that includes a die pad and a first lead extending away from the die pad, a semiconductor die mounted on the die pad, a load path connection that electrically connects a first load terminal of the semiconductor die with the first lead, and a magnetic sensor arrangement mounted directly on a region of the lead frame which forms part of the load path connection, wherein the magnetic sensor arrangement comprises a magnetic current sensor that is configured to measure a current flowing through the load path connection and an electrical isolation layer that electrically isolates the magnetic current sensor from the lead frame.

Abstract: An assembly machine comprises a machine frame, a plurality of work stations arranged on a circular carrier plate secured on the surface of the machine frame, and a rotary dish that is rotationally driven in cycles and arranged concentrically with the carrier plate. The rotary dish protrudes along the circumference of the carrier plate and forms a ring-shaped support surface for work pieces that surround the carrier plate. The machine frame is a cast machine component that comprises a table-like substructure and a console on the top side with a ring-shaped mounting surface for receiving a drive for the rotary dish. The rotary dish drive is a direct drive that comprises a ring-shaped stator with electrical windings that is secured on the mounting surface, and a rotor fitted with permanent magnets. The rotor forms a carrier for and is detachably connected with the rotary dish.

Abstract: In the production of an ammonium fluoride solution by precipitating hexafluosilicic acid from its solution with ammonia and from the resulting suspension separating off the silicon dioxide precipitated, the improvement which comprises thoroughly mixing the hexafluosilicic acid solution and ammonia at a temperature of about 40.degree. to 90.degree. C, in such proportions that the suspension obtained contains at least 1% of free ammonia and at most 22% of ammonium fluoride, the average residence time of the reactants in the precipitation zone being at least 4 minutes. Advantageously, the silicon dioxide is separated off from the suspension obtained without previous cooling, the resulting ammonium fluoride filtrate is left standing for at least 30 minutes to permit flocculation of silicon dioxide contained therein and the flocculated silicon dioxide is separated off.
