Abstract

A semiconductor package system is provided. A substrate having a die attach paddle is provided. A first plurality of leads is provided around the die attach paddle having a first plurality of lead tips. A second plurality of leads is provided around the die attach paddle interleaved with the first plurality of leads, at least some of the second plurality of leads having a plurality of depression lead tips. A first die is attached to the die attach paddle. The die is wire bonded to the first plurality of leads and the second plurality of leads. The die is encapsulated.

Claims (58)

1. A semiconductor package system comprising:

providing a die attach paddle;

providing a first plurality of leads around the die attach paddle having a first plurality of lead tips;

providing a second plurality of leads around the die attach paddle interleaved with the first plurality of leads, at least some of the second plurality of leads having a plurality of depression lead tips;

attaching a first die to the die attach paddle;

wire bonding the die to the first plurality of leads and the second plurality of leads, having wires bonding to the tops of the depression lead tips; and

encapsulating the die.

2. The semiconductor package system as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:

attaching a second die to the first die; and

wire bonding the second die to the first plurality of leads and the second plurality of leads.

3. The semiconductor package system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein:

providing the plurality of depression lead tips provides a plurality of depression lead tips about half the thickness of the first plurality of lead tips.

4. The semiconductor package system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein:

providing the plurality of depression lead tips uses at least one of a coining process, an etching process, and combinations thereof.

5. A semiconductor package system, comprising:

providing a die attach paddle;

providing a plurality of outer leads around the periphery of the die attach paddle;

providing a plurality of inner leads around the periphery of the die attach paddle;

providing a plurality of depression lead tips on at least some of the inner leads;

attaching a first die to the die attach paddle;

wire bonding the first die to the plurality of outer leads and the plurality of depression lead tips, having wires bonding to the tops of the depression lead tips; and

encapsulating the die, the plurality of outer leads, and the plurality of inner leads.

6. The semiconductor package system as claimed in claim 5 , further comprising:

attaching a second die to the first die; and

wire bonding the second die to the plurality of outer leads and the plurality of depression lead tips.

7. The semiconductor package system as claimed in claim 5 , wherein:

providing the plurality of depression lead tips provides a plurality of depression lead tips about half the thickness of the outer leads.

8. The semiconductor package system as claimed in claim 5 , wherein:

providing the plurality of depression lead tips uses at least one of a coining process, an etching process, and combinations thereof.

9. The semiconductor package system as claimed in claim 5 , further comprising:

interleaving the plurality of outer leads with the plurality of inner leads.

10. A semiconductor package system comprising:

a die attach paddle;

a first plurality of leads having a first plurality of lead tips around the die attach paddle;

a second plurality of leads interleaved with the first plurality of leads, at least some of the second plurality of leads having a plurality of depression lead tips;

a first die attached to the die attach paddle;

a first plurality of wires bonding the die to the first plurality of leads and the second plurality of leads, having a portion of the first plurality of wires bonding to the tops of the depression lead tips; and

an encapsulant encapsulating the die.

11. The semiconductor package system as claimed in claim 10 , further comprising:

a second die attached to the first die; and

a second plurality of wires bonding the second die to the first plurality of leads and the second plurality of leads.

12. The semiconductor package system as claimed in claim 10 , wherein:

the plurality of depression lead tips comprises a plurality of depression lead tips about half the thickness of the first plurality of lead tips.

13. The semiconductor package system as claimed in claim 10 , wherein:

the plurality of depression lead tips is characterized by having been flattened by coining, etching, or a combination thereof.

14. The semiconductor package system as claimed in claim 10 , wherein:

the first plurality of leads comprises a plurality of outer leads;

the second plurality of leads comprises a plurality of inner leads; and

an encapsulant encapsulating the die, the plurality of outer leads, and the plurality of inner leads.

15. The semiconductor package system as claimed in claim 14 , further comprising:

a second die attached to the first die; and

wires bonding the second die to the plurality of outer leads and the plurality of depression lead tips.

16. The semiconductor package system as claimed in claim 14 , wherein:

the plurality of depression lead tips comprises a plurality of depression lead tips about half the thickness of the outer leads.

17. The semiconductor package system as claimed in claim 14 , wherein:

the plurality of depression lead tips is characterized by having been flattened by coining, etching, or a combination thereof.

18. The semiconductor package system as claimed in claim 14 , wherein:

the plurality of outer leads is interleaved with the plurality of inner leads.
