Abstract

Abstract A semiconductor device comprises a semiconductor chip (10), enclosed in a leadless chip carrier (1) to one side of which the chip is attached, with a cap (8) covering the semiconductor chip. A heat sink plate (21a or 21b) which is electrically connected to the semiconductor chip (8) is provided on the opposite side of the leadless chip carrier (1), thereby improving heat dissipation and facilitating improvements in packing density of such devices.
