Method of manufacturing a semiconductor device by using a matrix frame
View Patent ↗A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes providing a matrix frame which includes a plurality of die pads, mounting a semiconductor chip on the respective die pads, and sealing the semiconductor chip in blocks. After the semiconductor chip is sealed by the sealing resin, inner leads which are extended from the sealing resin are punched by a punching blade. Then, the block is diced to individual semiconductor devices by a rotary blade.
1. A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device comprising:
providing a matrix frame which includes a frame portion which is arranged in a peripheral area of the matrix frame, a plurality of die pad groups each of which includes a plurality of die pads and a dummy pad which are arranged along a line, supporting leads which support the die pads, connecting portions which are arranged between respective die pad groups, and inner leads which are connected to the connecting portions;
mounting semiconductor chips on the die pads, the dummy pads having no semiconductor chips mounted thereon;
sealing the die pads, the dummy pads, the semiconductor chips, the inner leads, and the supporting leads by a sealing resin;
punching the connecting portions and the inner leads which are arranged between the die pads with a punching blade, wherein the inner leads and the connecting portions which are arranged between the respective dummy pads are not punched; and
dicing the supporting leads and the resin between the respective die pads with a rotary blade.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein each of the dummy pads is arranged in a middle area of the respective die pad groups.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the inner leads and the connecting portions which are separated by the dummy pads are punched simultaneously.
