Lead frame and method for manufacturing circuit device using the same

摘要

Provided are: a lead frame enabling efficient manufacturing of multiple circuit devices; and a method for manufacturing a circuit device using the same. In the lead frame of the present invention, units are arranged and frame-shaped first and second supporters are provided around the units to mechanically support the units. Moreover, a half groove is provided in the first supporter at a portion on an extended line of a dividing line defined at a boundary between each adjacent two of the units. Furthermore, a penetration groove penetrating a part of the second supporter at a portion on an extended line of another dividing line is provided.
