Abstract
A method is provided for manufacturing a fully moulded Multi Media Card package obtained by laser cutting wherein at least some edges and the corners around the package have rounded profile and a sufficient smoothness for a safe handling. The method includes providing a rounded groove on a substrate back side of the package, all around the package profile, and cutting the edges of said package by a laser cutting line passing through said groove. This new technique allows the use of all the 24.0 mm width of the MMC package for the substrate, thus increasing the surface available for electronic components.
