Abstract
A device includes a semiconductor chip with a ring-shaped metal structure extending along the contour of a first main surface of the semiconductor chip. An encapsulation body encapsulates the semiconductor chip and defines a second main surface. An array of external contact pads attaches to the second main surface of the encapsulation body, and at least one external contact pad of the array of external contact pads electrically couples to the ring-shaped metal structure.
