Abstract

A semiconductor package that includes a substrate having a metallic back plate, an insulation body and a plurality of conductive pads on the insulation body, and a semiconductor die coupled to said conductive pads, the conductive pads including regions readied for direct connection to pads external to the package using a conductive adhesive.

Claims (28)

1. A power semiconductor package comprising:

a semiconductor die that includes a first electrode;

a support plate;

an insulation body disposed over said support plate;

conductive pads on said insulation body, a first one of said conductive pads including a first region coupled to said first electrode and a second region readied for connection to a first external conductive pad;
