Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 112 words
A stock arrangement for semiconductor chips, comprising at least two semiconductor bodies superimposed on each other, at least two metallic bridges superimposed on each other, each metallic bridge having a thickened portion extending substantially perpendicularly to the planes of said semiconductor bodies and being disposed at the outer edges of said semiconductor bodies, said superimposed bridges being electrically and mechanically connected to one another at their thickened portions said metallic bridges each having tooth-like portions extending from said thickened portion generally parallel to said semiconductor bodies, each of said semiconductor bodies having contact surfaces making electrical and mechanical contact with the free end section of a corresponding one of said toothlike portions.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 112 words
A stock arrangement for semiconductor chips, comprising at least two semiconductor bodies superimposed on each other, at least two metallic bridges superimposed on each other, each metallic bridge having a thickened portion extending substantially perpendicularly to the planes of said semiconductor bodies and being disposed at the outer edges of said semiconductor bodies, said superimposed bridges being electrically and mechanically connected to one another at their thickened portions said metallic bridges each having tooth-like portions extending from said thickened portion generally parallel to said semiconductor bodies, each of said semiconductor bodies having contact surfaces making electrical and mechanical contact with the free end section of a corresponding one of said toothlike portions.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 17 words
A stack arrangement as claimed in claim 1, wherein each of the metallic bridges comprises two parts.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 42 words
A stack arrangement according to claim 1 wherein said thickened portion of each said bridges has a thickness which is at least equal to the sum of the thicknesses of the free end section of said tooth-like portion and the semiconductor body.
