Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A resin-encapsulated semiconductor device is manufactured by mounting semiconductor elements on respective die pad portions of a frame. Electrodes on the surface of the semiconductor elements are wire bonded to lead portions of the frame. The die pad portions, semiconductor elements and lead portions are encapsulated with resin, leaving a bottom surface part of the lead portions exposed. The lead portions are partially cut by a rotary blade from an upper side of the resin to form concave parts in the lead portions, which are wet-etched to form exposed lead upper end parts. A plated layer is formed on the lead upper end parts and the lead bottom surface parts. The remaining parts of the lead portions with the plated layer are cut to separate the resin-encapsulated semiconductor device into individual pieces.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method of manufacturing a resin-encapsulated semiconductor device, comprising: preparing one of a frame and an electroformed substrate, including a plurality of units each including a die pad portion and a plurality of lead portions disposed opposite to the die pad portion; mounting a semiconductor element on each of the die pad portions of the one of the frame and the electroformed substrate, and connecting the plurality of lead portions and electrodes…
