Method of manufacturing a semiconductor device

Abstract:

A method for forming packaged electronic devices includes providing a substrate having pads connected by conductive pad linking portions and semiconductor devices attached to the pads in different orientations. A second substrate is provided having conductive connectors each with a plate portion, a conductive member extending from a side segment of the plate portion, and a connective portion extending from the conductive member distal to the plate portion. The second substrate further has conductive linking portions physically connecting adjoining plate portions together. Each plate portion is attached to one of the semiconductor devices to provide a subassembly. The conductive linking portions are configured to maintain the adjoining plate portions in substantial alignment with the semiconductor devices and to maintain the connective portions is a desired alignment during the plate portion attachment step. A package body is provided to encapsulate the subassembly where bottom surfaces of each connective portion is exposed outside of a major surface of the package body. The method includes separating the encapsulated subassembly to provide the packaged electronic devices such that the separating step severs the conductive linking portions.
