Abstract
A resin-encapsulated semiconductor device is manufactured by mounting semiconductor elements on respective die pad portions of a frame. Electrodes on the surface of the semiconductor elements are wire bonded to lead portions of the frame. The die pad portions, semiconductor elements and lead portions are encapsulated with resin, leaving a bottom surface part of the lead portions exposed. The lead portions are partially cut by a rotary blade from an upper side of the resin to form concave parts in the lead portions, which are wet-etched to form exposed lead upper end parts. A plated layer is formed on the lead upper end parts and the lead bottom surface parts. The remaining parts of the lead portions with the plated layer are cut to separate the resin-encapsulated semiconductor device into individual pieces.
