Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor chip attached to a lead frame with recesses on the rear surface of the semiconductor chip opposite the lead frame. These recesses increase the heat radiation area of the semiconductor chip. In a method of producing a semiconductor device, the height of a cavity between upper and lower dies is smaller than the height of the semiconductor chip including bump electrodes. During a molding process, the bump electrodes contact the upper die or a dam surrounding the bump electrodes so that no thin burrs are produced on the surfaces of the bump electrodes in the molding process.
