In at least one aspect, a method can include shaping a block of flexible spacer material. The method can include shaping a portion of the block of flexible spacer material to receive a solid metal block. The method can include coupling the solid metal block to the portion of the block of flexible spacer material.

Structure and method related to a power module using a hybrid spacer

A semiconductor device module may include a leadframe spacer that provides the functions of both a leadframe and a spacer, while enabling a double-sided cooling configuration. Such a leadframe spacer may include a leadframe surface that provides a die attach pad (DAP) that is shared by at least two semiconductor devices. The leadframe spacer may include at least one downset, where the semiconductor devices may be attached within a recess defined by the at least one downset. A first substrate may be connected to a first side of the leadframe. A second substrate may be connected to downset surfaces of the at least one downset, and positioned for further connection to the semiconductor devices in a double-sided assembly.

Leadframe spacer for double-sided power module

A power module includes a spacer block, a thermally conductive substrate coupled to one side of the spacer block, and a semiconductor device die coupled to an opposite side of the spacer block. The spacer block includes a solid spacer block and an adjacent flexible spacer block. An inner portion of the device die is coupled to the solid spacer block, and an outer portion of the semiconductor device die is coupled to the adjacent flexible spacer block.
