In a described example, an electrical apparatus includes a substrate having a first surface and lead pads on the first surface of the substrate for surface mounting components. A ribbon wire bond is provided having open ends and a central portion between the open ends, the open ends of the ribbon wire bond connected to the lead pads. An electrical component is bonded to the central portion of the ribbon wire bond. The central portion of the ribbon wire bond and the electrical component are spaced from the first surface of the substrate.

Ribbon wire bond

A packaged semiconductor device includes at least one semiconductor die having circuitry with circuit nodes coupled to bond pads that have bonding features thereon. A plurality of leads or lead terminals include at least metal bars, wherein the plurality of leads or lead terminals are exclusive of any saw marks. The semiconductor die is flipchip attached with a bonded connection between respective bonding features and respective leads or lead terminals.
