Abstract

See full text

A leadframe has conductive fingers with an insulating film located on a first portion of the fingers. The insulating film has openings into which contact pads formed of a noble metal are provided. Pads on a chip are wire bonded to these contact pads on the leadframe. The first portion is encapsulated in a molded package. The structure inhibits silver migration, provides insulation between wires and leadframe, and provides improved adhesion between plastic package and leadframe. A single insulating film with openings for providing the contact pads provides all these features.
