EDGE-MOUNTED SURFACE-MOUNT PACKAGE FOR SEMICONDUCTOR INTEGRATED CIRCUIT DEVICE IN TERGRATELES

摘要

A flat package (10) for semiconductor integrated circuit devices allows edge-mounting and surface-mount. The package may be molded plastic (12) containing a semiconductor chip (11), and flat leads (14) extend from one edge of the package. The leads are bent to provide an area (18) to solder to conductors on a PC board. Mechanical positioning, mechanical support and spacing are provided by studs (15) extending from the edge of the package adjacent the leads. The studs have stops (17) formed at a position even with flat outer surfaces of the bent leads; the portion outward of the stops fits into holes in the PC board.
