Abstract

See full text

A semiconductor assembly comprises a semiconductor die which is attached by a carrier material to a lead frame. The carrier material is coated on the die side with one type of adhesive and on the lead frame side with a different adhesive. The lead frame has a small surface area to connect to the carrier material, while the semiconductor die has a large surface area to connect to the carrier material. As used with one inventive embodiment, the adhesive between the die and the carrier softens at a low temperature preventing the die from cracking at elevated temperatures. The adhesive on the lead frame side of the carrier material softens at a higher temperature than the adhesive of the die side of the adhesive, thereby firmly connecting the lead frame having a small surface area to the carrier.
