Abstract

A method for manufacturing a semiconductor package system includes: providing a leadframe, having an open center, with leads adjacent to a peripheral edge of the leadframe; making a die support pad, formed without tie bars, separately from the leadframe; providing a coverlay tape for positioning the support pad centered within the leadframe; attaching a semiconductor die to the die support pad through a die attach adhesive, the semiconductor die being spaced from the leads; and connecting a bonding pad on the semiconductor die to one of the leads using a bonding wire.

Claims (22)

1. A method for manufacturing a semiconductor package system comprising:

providing a leadframe, having an open center, with leads adjacent to a peripheral edge of the leadframe;

making a die support pad, formed without tie bars, separately from the leadframe;

providing a coverlay tape for positioning the support pad centered within the leadframe;

attaching a semiconductor die to the die support pad through a die attach adhesive, the semiconductor die being spaced from the leads; and

connecting a bonding pad on the semiconductor die to one of the leads using a bonding wire.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein attaching the semiconductor die to the die support pad through the die attach adhesive includes attaching the semiconductor die overhanging the leads.

3. The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein attaching the semiconductor die to the die support pad through the die attach adhesive includes pre-coating the die support pad with the die attach adhesive before attaching the semiconductor die.

4. The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein making the die support pad separately from the leadframe includes making the die support pad with a die support pad groove formed at the bottom surface of the die support pad.

5. The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein providing the leadframe with the leads includes providing the leadframe with corner leads adjacent to each other without an intervening portion of the leadframe.

6. A method for manufacturing a semiconductor package system comprising:

providing a leadframe, having an open center, with leads adjacent to a peripheral edge of the leadframe;

making a die support pad, formed without tie bars, separately from the leadframe;

providing a coverlay tape for positioning the support pad centered within the leadframe;

attaching a semiconductor die to the die support pad through a die attach adhesive, a space between the semiconductor die and the leads being filled with the die attached adhesive; and

connecting a bonding pad on the semiconductor die to one of the leads using a bonding wire.

7. The method as claimed in claim 6 wherein attaching the semiconductor die to the die support pad through the die attach adhesive includes attaching the semiconductor die overhanging the leads.

8. The method as claimed in claim 6 wherein attaching the semiconductor die to the die support pad through the die attach adhesive includes pre-coating the semiconductor die with the die attach adhesive before attaching to the die support pad.

9. The method as claimed in claim 6 further comprising:

encapsulating the semiconductor die, the bonding pad, the bonding wire, the die attach adhesive, the die support pad, and the leads in a mold compound; and

singulating the leadframe.

10. The method as claimed in claim 6 wherein providing the leadframe with the leads includes providing the leadframe with corner leads adjacent to each other without an intervening portion of the leadframe.
