Abstract
A semiconductor package device is disclosed. In one embodiment, attached by its active face to a lead-on-chip leadframe having leadfingers is an integrated circuit. The integrated circuit has a polyimide coating on its backside. An encapsulating material surrounds the integrated circuit and the lead-on-chip leadframe so that the leadfingers are exposed. The polyimide coating on the backside of the integrated circuit helps to reduce package cracking arising from mounting the device to a printed circuit board by relflow solder.
