A leadframe having individual bond fingers incorporating two or more alternate bonding areas. In one embodiment, conventional bond fingers having bonding areas in an outer row are augmented to include an additional conductive trace or intermediate portion terminating in a bonding area that is in general alignment with an inner row of bonding areas. Likewise, bond fingers having bonding areas in an inner row are enlarged to include an alternate bonding area that is in general alignment with the outer row of bonding areas. In another embodiment, bond fingers are arranged to provide multiple rows of closely-spaced staggered bonding areas to reduce bonding pitches. By providing alternate bonding areas in individual bond fingers, the manufacturing rules addressing staggered bond wire placement can be followed more readily, while simultaneously permitting the most convenient bond fingers to be utilized. The invention thereby adds significant flexibility to current staggered bonding techniques, and allows for a reduction in the size of many semiconductor dies.
