A method includes forming a leadframe assembly to have a pair of opposing sides, and having semiconductor die receiving portions extending between the opposing sides. The method also includes placing semiconductor dies on the leadframe assembly in the die receiving portions. Each die has a row of leads on each of two opposing sides of the die and a longitudinal axis parallel to the rows of leads. The longitudinal axis of each die is orthogonal to the opposing sides of the leadframe assembly. The method further includes applying mold compound to the semiconductor dies. The method includes punching through the leadframe assembly between the opposing sides using a first tool having a first tool longitudinal axis parallel to longitudinal axes of the dies.

Cutting a leadframe assembly with a plurality of punching tools

An electronic device, a lead frame, and a method, including providing a lead frame with a Y-shaped feature having branch portions connected to a dam bar in a prospective gap in an equally spaced repeating lead pitch pattern, and a set of first leads extending parallel to one another along a first direction and spaced apart from one another along a second direction in lead locations of the repeating lead pitch pattern, attaching a semiconductor die to a die attach pad of the lead frame, attaching bond wires between bond pads of the semiconductor die, and the first leads, enclosing first portions of the first leads, the die attach pad, and a portion of the semiconductor die in a package structure, and performing a dam bar cut process that cuts through portions of the dam bar between the lead locations of the repeating lead pitch pattern.

Electronic device with lead pitch gap

Described examples include a system in package (SIP) device, including: a first leadframe having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface; an integrated circuit die including solder bumps on a first surface and having a second opposite surface, the solder bumps mounted to the second surface of the first leadframe; a second leadframe having a first surface including a die pad portion, and a second opposite surface, the die pad portion attached to the second surface of the integrated circuit die; and an inductor mounted to the first surface of the first leadframe, the inductor having terminals with exterior portions electrically connected and mechanically connected to the first surface of the first leadframe, the inductor terminals spaced from one another by a portion of an inductor body, the portion of the inductor body between the inductor terminals spaced from the first surface of the first leadframe by a gap of at least 100 &#x3bc;ms.

System in package device including inductor

A method for packaging integrated circuit die such that each package includes die with integrated passive components mounted to either the back surface, the active surface or both the back and active surfaces of the die.
