Semiconductor device
Provided is a semiconductor device including a package having a hollow portion, which can meet the need of reduction in size and thickness. The semiconductor device includes: a resin molded member ( 1 ) including a hollow portion ( 10 ) having an inner bottom surface on which a semiconductor chip ( 6 ) is mounted, a surrounding portion ( 1 b ) that surrounds the hollow portion ( 10 ), and a bottom surface portion ( 1 a ); an inner lead ( 2 e, 2 f ); and an outer lead ( 2 a, 2 b ) exposed from the resin molded member ( 1 ). The inner lead buried in the molded member ( 1 ) includes an L-shaped lead extending portion having a through hole formed therethrough.
1. A semiconductor device, comprising:
a semiconductor chip;
a resin molded member comprising:
a hollow portion having an inner bottom surface on which the semiconductor chip is mounted;
a surrounding portion formed so as to surround the hollow portion; and
a bottom surface portion formed below the surrounding portion and the hollow portion;
an inner lead having a region exposed to the hollow portion and a region buried in the resin molded member, the inner lead having an L-shaped lead extending portion comprising a horizontal portion, a bent portion, and a perpendicular portion; and
an outer lead that is continuous to the inner lead and is exposed from the resin molded member,
wherein the L-shaped lead extending portion has a through hole formed therethrough.
2. A semiconductor device according to claim 1 , wherein the through hole is formed continuously through the horizontal portion, the bent portion, and the perpendicular portion of the L-shaped lead extending portion.
3. A semiconductor device according to claim 2 , wherein the through hole has a peripheral edge comprising a protrusion.
4. A semiconductor device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the through hole comprises a plurality of holes, and
wherein all of the plurality of holes are formed continuously through the horizontal portion, the bent portion, and the perpendicular portion of the L-shaped lead extending portion.
5. A semiconductor device according claim 1 , further comprising a die pad that is made of the same material as the inner lead, and is buried in the bottom surface portion of the resin molded member in such a manner that a surface of the die pad is exposed,
wherein the semiconductor chip is fixed onto the die pad.
6. A semiconductor device according to claim 5 ,
wherein the die pad has a die pad through hole formed at a center of the die pad, and
wherein the die pad through hole is filled with a resin of the resin molded member.
7. A semiconductor device according to claim 5 , wherein the die pad has a back surface opposite to a surface on which the semiconductor chip is placed, the back surface being exposed from the resin molded member.
