Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 71 words
An integrated circuit device comprising: a semiconductor bar; a bar pad having first and second surfaces, said semiconductor bar being affixed to said first surface of said bar pad, and said second surface of said bar pad being textured; and an encapsulating medium surrounding said semiconductor bar and at least a portion of said bar pad, mechanically locked to said textured surface to distribute thermal shear stress over the bar pad.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 71 words
An integrated circuit device comprising: a semiconductor bar; a bar pad having first and second surfaces, said semiconductor bar being affixed to said first surface of said bar pad, and said second surface of said bar pad being textured; and an encapsulating medium surrounding said semiconductor bar and at least a portion of said bar pad, mechanically locked to said textured surface to distribute thermal shear stress over the bar pad.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 25 words
