The present disclosure is directed to a lead frame including a die pad with cavities, and methods for attaching a semiconductor die to the lead frame. The cavities allow for additional adhesive to be formed on the die pad at the corners of the semiconductor die, and prevent the additional adhesive from overflowing on to active areas of the semiconductor die.

Lead frame for improving adhesive fillets on semiconductor die corners

The present disclosure is directed to a flat no-lead semiconductor package with a surfaced mounted structure. An end portion of the surface mounted structure includes a recessed member so that the surface mounted structure is coupled to leads of the flat no-lead semiconductor package through, among others, the sidewalls of the recessed members.

Flat no-lead package with surface mounted structure

A semiconductor package includes a lead frame, a die, a discrete electrical component, and electrical connections. The lead frame includes leads and a die pad. Some of the leads include engraved regions that have recesses therein and the die pad may include an engraved region or multiple engraved regions. Each engraved region is formed to contain and confine a conductive adhesive from flowing over the edges of the engraved leads or the die pad. The boundary confines the conductive adhesive to the appropriate location on the engraved lead or the engraved die pad when being placed on the engraved regions. By utilizing a lead frame with engraved regions, the flow of the conductive adhesive or the wettability of the conductive adhesive can be contained and confined to the appropriate areas of the engraved lead or engraved die pad such that a conductive adhesive does not cause cross-talk between electrical components within a semiconductor package or short circuiting within a semiconductor package.
