Abstract
A semiconductor package according to the present invention includes a die attachment area for receiving a die attachment material and a stitch bond area for receiving a wire lead from a die. The stitch bond area is adjacent to said die attachment area on the substrate. Moreover, a stud bump is formed on the substrate for preventing the die attachment material from contacting the stitch bond area when a die is attached to the die attachment area. A method for manufacturing a semiconductor package according to the present invention also is disclosed.
