mounting the integrated circuit die to overhang edges of the trenched die pad.

2. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein forming the lead frame having the trenched die pad comprises forming an adhesive plane.

3. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein forming the lead frame comprises etching or machine stamping.

4. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein mounting the integrated circuit die to the trenched die pad comprises applying an adhesive whereon the integrated circuit die and the trenched die pad are bonded.

5. The system as claimed in claim 1 further comprising electrically connecting the integrated circuit die to leads of the lead frame having the trenched die pad.

6. An integrated circuit package system comprising: providing an integrated circuit die; forming a lead frame, the lead frame having leads and a trenched die pad with an

adhesive trench and an adhesive plane to restrain adhesive

propagation, the trenched die pad having an adhesive trench with a channel-like formation, open to the outside; and mounting the integrated circuit die to the adhesive plane with the integrated

circuit die overhanging edges of the trenched die pad and the leads.

7. The system as claimed in claim 6 wherein forming the lead frame comprises forming leads in a dual row configuration and forming the adhesive trench within an outer dimension of the trenched die pad.
