Lead-frame for electonic devices with extruded pads

摘要

A lead-frame for electronic devices is proposed; the lead-frame is produced from a metal plate and includes a bearing structure arranged in a first plane, and for each electronic device a support element spaced apart from the first plane having a first surface facing the bearing structure for mounting at least one chip and an opposed second surface for being exposed from the electronic device, the second surface being arranged in a second plane, and a plurality of interconnection elements connecting the support element to the bearing structure. For each electronic device the lead-frame further includes an intermediate area between the support element and the interconnection elements, the intermediate area being arranged in a third plane between the first and the second planes.
