A molded semiconductor package includes a mold compound having opposing first and second main surfaces and an edge extending between the first and second main surfaces. A semiconductor die is embedded in the mold compound. A plurality of metal pads embedded in the mold compound are electrically connected to the semiconductor die. The metal pads have a bottom face which is uncovered by the mold compound at the second main surface of the mold compound. The metal pads disposed around a periphery of the molded package have a side face which is uncovered by the mold compound at the edge of the mold compound. The faces of the metal pads uncovered by the mold compound are plated. The side face of each metal pad disposed around the periphery of the molded package is recessed inward from the edge of the mold compound. A corresponding manufacturing method is also described.
