SOLDER PRINTING

Abstract:

A method includes performing a non-screen printing process that deposits solder on a lead frame or on conductive features of a semiconductor die or wafer, or on or in a conductive via of a laminate structure. The method further comprises engaging the semiconductor die to the lead frame, performing a thermal process that reflows the solder, performing a molding process that forms a package structure which encloses the semiconductor die and a portion of the lead frame, and separating a packaged electronic device from a remaining portion of the lead frame.
