Abstract
Leadframes for semiconductor devices are manufactured by providing a laminar substrate of laser direct structuring material, the laminar substrate comprising first and second opposed surfaces, applying laser beam processing to the substrate to provide a first pattern of electrically-conductive formations at the first surface, a second pattern of electrically-conductive formations at the second surface and electrically-conductive vias through the substrate between the first surface and the second surface. Electrically-conductive material is formed, for instance via electrolytic or electroless growth of electrically-conductive material such a copper onto the first and second pattern of electrically-conductive formations as well as onto the electrically-conductive vias provided by applying laser beam processing to the substrate. The electrically-conductive vias are coupled to one or both of the electrically-conductive formations in the first pattern of electrically-conductive formations and the second pattern of electrically-conductive formations.
