Resin-moulded semiconductor device, method for manufacturing the same, and leadframe

摘要

A resin-molded semiconductor device includes: signal leads; a die pad with a central portion elevated above a peripheral portion thereof; support leads, each including a raised portion higher in level than the other portions; and DB paste for use in die bonding. All of these members are encapsulated within a resin encapsulant. The lower part of each of these signal leads protrudes downward out of the resin encapsulant and functions as an external electrode. Each of the support leads is provided with two bent portions to cushion the deforming force. By forming a half-blanked portion in the die pad, the central portion is elevated above the peripheral portion, thus preventing the semiconductor chip from being hampered by the support leads. Accordingly, the size of the semiconductor chip mounted can be selected from a broader range and the humidity resistance of the device can also be improved.
