Inline integrated circuit system
View Patent ↗An integrated circuit package system including: providing a leadframe with an integrated circuit mounted thereover; encapsulating the integrated circuit with an encapsulation; mounting an etch barrier below the leadframe; and etching the leadframe.
1. An integrated circuit package system comprising:
providing a leadframe having a side rail, and a mold line with an integrated circuit mounted thereover;
encapsulating the integrated circuit with an encapsulation;
mounting an etch barrier to the side rail and the mold line; and
etching the leadframe.
2. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein:
mounting an etch barrier to the side rail and the mold line includes mounting a tape under the side rail and the mold line.
3. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein:
mounting an etch barrier to the side rail and the mold line includes mounting photoresist under the side rail and the mold line.
4. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein:
mounting an etch barrier to the side rail and the mold line includes mounting a mold part under the side rail and the mold line.
5. The system as claimed in claim 1 further comprising:
mounting an etch barrier above the side rail;
molding individual packages above the lead frame; and
testing the individual packages.
6. The system as claimed in claim 5 wherein:
mounting an etch barrier above the side rail includes mounting a tape above the side rail.
7. The system as claimed in claim 5 wherein:
mounting an etch barrier above the side rail includes mounting a guide rail above the side rail.
8. The system as claimed in claim 5 wherein:
testing the individual packages includes testing them individually.
9. The system as claimed in claim 5 further comprising:
providing a leadframe with sticky tape;
mounting the individual packages on the leadframe and testing the individual packages individually.
10. The system as claimed in claim 5 further comprising:
providing a leadframe with sticky tape;
mounting the individual packages on the leadframe and testing the individual packages together as a strip.
