Abstract

Abstract A semiconductor device having lead terminals bent in a J-shape is disclosed. A radiating plate having a recess formed on an outer peripheral portion thereof is exposed to a lower face of a resin member and free ends of outer portions of the lead terminals are positioned in the recess of the radiating plate. The free ends of the outer portions of the lead terminals and the recess of the radiating plate are isolated from each other by projections of the resin member. Since the radiating plate is exposed to the lower face of the resin member, the heat radiating property is high whereas the radiating plate and the lead terminals are not short-circuited to each other at all.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 208 words
A semiconductor device comprising: a resin member having at least one recess formed on an outer peripheral portion of a lower face thereof; a pellet comprising a semiconductor circuit having a plurality of connection pads provided thereon and encapsulated in said resin member; a radiating plate having at least one recess formed on an outer peripheral portion thereof and having said pellet mounted on an upper face thereof and encapsulated in said resin member in such a condition as to be exposed to the lower face of said resin member; a plurality of lead terminals having inner portions encapsulated in said resin member and positioned on the outer sides of said pellet and outer portions extending outwardly from side faces of said resin member and bent in a J-shape such that free ends of said outer portions bent in a J-shape are positioned in said recess of the lower face of said resin member; a plurality of bonding wires encapsulated in said resin member for connecting said plurality of lead terminals and a plurality of connection pads of said pellet individually to each other; and insulating element positioned in gaps between the free ends of said outer portions of said lead terminals and recess of said radiating plate.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 208 words
A semiconductor device comprising: a resin member having at least one recess formed on an outer peripheral portion of a lower face thereof; a pellet comprising a semiconductor circuit having a plurality of connection pads provided thereon and encapsulated in said resin member; a radiating plate having at least one recess formed on an outer peripheral portion thereof and having said pellet mounted on an upper face thereof and encapsulated in said resin member in such a condition as to be exposed to the lower face of said resin member; a plurality of lead terminals having inner portions encapsulated in said resin member and positioned on the outer sides of said pellet and outer portions extending outwardly from side faces of said resin member and bent in a J-shape such that free ends of said outer portions bent in a J-shape are positioned in said recess of the lower face of said resin member; a plurality of bonding wires encapsulated in said resin member for connecting said plurality of lead terminals and a plurality of connection pads of said pellet individually to each other; and insulating element positioned in gaps between the free ends of said outer portions of said lead terminals and recess of said radiating plate.
