Abstract
A semiconductor integrated circuit (IC) device is defined by a low-profile package without a die attach pad (DAP). In place of the DAP, an adhesive element is used to retain a die relative to a lead frame during processing. In one example, a method of manufacturing the device includes sealing the lead frame on one side using an adhesive tape and exposing a portion of the tape within a die attach region. The die is secured onto the tape adhesive and held in place during subsequent processing, such as a wire bonding procedure to couple the die to external portions of the frame.
