An electric packaging arrangement for isolated circuits is described. A lead frame is formed with at least one off-centered tie bar connected between one of the circuits on the lead frame's internal lead and an external handling side rail. The tie bar is off-centered by a specified distance from the longitudinal center line of the package. The external side rail is used to support and align the lead frame during manufacturing. To meet safety requirements, such as the UL-1950 requirements, electrical components in a primary circuit and a secondary circuit are attached and electrically coupled to the lead frame in a manner such that the smallest internal distance between internal circuits is at least a predefined distance. The external distance between the tie bar, connected to the secondary circuit, and the closest primary circuit pin is set to meet external circuit component spacing requirements for isolated circuits. The described arrangement has a number of applications including packaging isolated circuits using small form factor packages such as dual-in-line (DIP) and small outline (SO) packages. |
