Abstract An integrated circuit device is disclosed. The device includes a first leadframe power supply bus and a second leadframe power supply bus that each have portions separate from and adjacent to one another that lie between a first plurality of leadfingers and a second plurality of leadfingers. An electronic device is connected to the first leadframe power supply bus and to the second leadframe power supply bus. Another electronic device can be connected to the first leadframe power supply bus and to the second leadframe bus. Exemplary of the electronic devices are a de-coupling capacitor and a capacitor for high frequency noise suppression. A semiconductor die is attached to the power supply busses. A substance encapsulates the components so that an integrated semiconductor chip is formed. A method of making an integrated circuit device is also disclosed.
A method of making an integrated circuit package, the method comprising the steps of: attaching a first electronic device to the top of and between two adjacent power supply busses of a leadframe; attaching a second electronic device to the top of and between the two adjacent power supply busses of the leadframe; attaching a semiconductor device to the bottom of the leadframe; and encapsulating with an encapsulant the leadframe, the first and second electronic devices, and the semiconductor device to thereby form an integrated circuit package with leadfingers extending from the encapsulant.
