Semiconductor leadframes are provided with selected coined and uncoined areas. The coined areas are arranged to coincide with connection sites for electrical couplings, and the uncoined areas are arranged to provide a secure mechanical bond between leadframe and die attach material or leadframe and encapsulant. Methods are disclosed for forming a leadframe including steps for providing a leadframe that has a die pad and leadfingers extending from the die pad, and coining a selected portion of the die pad using a high pressure coining tool configured to make contact with the selected portion of the die pad and to avoid contact with the remainder of the die pad. A leadframe coining tool is also disclosed for use in a high pressure press. The coining tool includes one or more contact area for coining a portion of the die pad, and at least one non-contact area, whereby a die pad of an aligned leadframe may be partially coined. |
