A semiconductor package includes a lead frame, a chip, and a molding encapsulation. The lead frame comprises a die paddle, a first plurality of leads, additional one or more leads, a second plurality of leads, a first tie bar, a second tie bar, a third tie bar, and a fourth tie bar. A respective end surface of each lead of the first plurality of leads, the additional one or more leads, and the second plurality of leads is plated with a metal. A respective end surface of the first tie bar, the second tie bar, the third tie bar, and the fourth tie bar is not plated with the metal. A method for fabricating a semiconductor package includes the steps of providing a lead frame array, mounting a chip, forming a molding encapsulation, applying a trimming process, applying a plating process, and applying a singulation process.

A semiconductor package comprises a lead frame, a chip, and a molding encapsulation. The lead frame comprises one or more die paddles comprising a first die paddle. The first die paddle comprises one or more through holes, one or more protrusions with grooves on top surfaces of the one or more protrusions, or one or more squeezed extensions. Each of the one or more through holes is filled with a respective portion of the molding encapsulation. Each of the one or more through holes may be of a rectangular shape, a rectangular shape with four filleted corners, a circular shape, or an oval shape. Each of the grooves is filled with a respective portion of the molding encapsulation. A respective side wall of each of the one or more squeezed extensions is of a swallowtail shape. The swallowtail shape directly contacts the molding encapsulation.

An intelligent power module (IPM) has a first, second, third and fourth die supporting elements, a first, second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth transistors, a connection member, a low voltage IC, a high voltage IC, a plurality of leads and a molding encapsulation. The first transistor is attached to the first die supporting element. The second transistor is attached to the second die supporting element. The third transistor is attached to the third die supporting element. The fourth, fifth and sixth transistor s are attached to the fourth die supporting element. The low and high voltage ICs are attached to the connection member. The molding encapsulation encloses the first, second, third and fourth die supporting elements, the first, second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth transistors, the connection member and the low and high voltage ICs. The IPM has a reduced thermal resistance of junction-to-case (RJC) compared to a conventional IPM.

Singulation of individual electronic packages fabricated as part of a common matrix, is accomplished by mask patterning and chemical exposure in combination with physical sawing. In one embodiment of a singulation process in accordance with the present invention, an initial, shallow saw cut into inter-package regions of the matrix exposes underlying metal to subsequent chemical etching steps. In an alternative embodiment, a separate photoresist mask may be patterned over the matrix to selectively expose metal in inter-package regions to chemical etching.

Chemical-enhanced package singulation process

Embodiments in accordance with the present invention relate to the fabrication of packages for semiconductor devices, and in particular to the use of electroplating techniques to form features on the surface of a metal lead frame. In accordance with one embodiment, electroplating is used to fabricate non-integral pin portions shaped to remain securely encapsulated within the plastic molding of the package. In accordance with another embodiment, electroplating may be used to fabricate protrusions on the underside of the lead frame for elevating the package above the PC board, thereby preserving the rounded shape of solder balls used to secure the diepad to the PC board. In accordance with yet another embodiment, electroplating may be used to fabricate raised patterns on the upper surface of the diepad for ensuring uniform spreading of adhesive used to secure the die to the diepad, thereby ensuring level attitude of the die within the package.
