Abstract
A packaged semiconductor device is made by forming a conductive pad on an external surface of an integrated circuit device, forming a passivation layer over the conductive pad, removing a portion of the passivation layer over a bond area on the conductive pad, forming a sacrificial anode around a majority of a periphery surrounding the bond area, forming a conductive bond in the bond area, and forming an encapsulating material around the conductive bond and an exposed portion of the sacrificial anode.
