ELECTRONIC PACKAGE HAVING DOWN-SET LEADS AND METHOD

摘要

In one embodiment, a leadless package includes down-set conductive leads having base portions. The base portions include stand-offs that attach to electrodes on an electronic chip using, for example, a solder die attach material. An optional encapsulating layer covers portions of the down-set conductive leads and portions of the electronic chip while leaving pad portions of the down-set conductive leads and a surface of the electronic chip exposed. The pad portions and the surface of the electronic chip are oriented to attach to a next level of assembly.
