Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A semiconductor device has a substrate with a die mounting site and a plurality of leads. A first electrical component is disposed over a first surface of the die mounting site. A second electrical component is disposed over a second surface of the die mounting site opposite the first surface of the die mounting site. A first bond wire is coupled between the first electrical component and a first lead, and a second bond wire is coupled between the second electrical component and a second lead. A first encapsulant is deposited over the first electrical component, and a second encapsulant is deposited over the second electrical component with the leads exposed between the first encapsulant and second encapsulant. The leads are exposed from the first encapsulant and second encapsulant on a side of the semiconductor device.
