A method of assembling a semiconductor device includes providing a lead frame having a die pad and a fame member with lead fingers that surround the die pad. The lead fingers have distal ends connected to the frame member and proximal ends near the die pad. A die is attached to the die pad and die connection pads are electrically connected to the proximal ends of the lead fingers with bond wires. The die, bond wires, and part of the lead fingers are encapsulated with an encapsulant. The encapsulating process includes separating the lead fingers into first and second sets of lead fingers. The proximal ends of the first set lie in a first plane and the proximal ends of the second set lie in a second plane that is spaced and maintained from the first plane solely by the encapsulation material.

A method of packaging a power semiconductor die includes providing a first lead frame of a dual gauge lead frame. The first lead frame includes a thick die pad. A tape is attached to a first side of the thick die pad and the power die is attached to a second side of the thick die pad. A second lead frame of the dual gauge lead frame is provided. The second lead frame has thin lead fingers. One end of the lead fingers is attached to an active surface of the power die such that the lead fingers are electrically connected to bonding pads of the power die. A molding compound is then dispensed onto a top surface of the dual gauge lead frame such that the molding compound covers the power die and the lead fingers.

A method of assembling a magnetoresistive random access memory (MRAM) device includes providing a substrate having an opening. A tape is applied to a surface of the substrate and a first magnetic shield is placed onto the tape and within the substrate opening. An adhesive is applied between the first magnetic shield and the substrate to attach the first magnetic shield to the substrate. An MRAM die is attached to the first magnetic shield and bond pads of the MRAM die are connected to pads on the substrate with wires. A second magnetic shield is attached to a top surface of the MRAM die. An encapsulating material is dispensed onto the substrate, the MRAM die, the second magnetic shield and part of the first magnetic shield, cured, and then the tape is removed. Solder balls then may be attached to the substrate.

A method for assembling a semiconductor package includes a rapid cooling step after post mold curing of an encapsulation material. The rapid cooling step includes blowing chilled, compressed air over the package for about two minutes. The rapid cooling step does not require any clamping pressure be simultaneously applied to the package. The rapid cooling step reduces a temperature of the encapsulation material from a curing temperature to the cooled temperature within a maximum period of less than five minutes. By using rapid cooling, as opposed to cooling the package under a clamping pressure with ambient air, package warpage due to CTE mismatches is prevented.

A method of assembling semiconductor devices for surface mounting includes forming an array of lead frames in which supporting frame structures of adjacent lead frames include an intermediate common bar connecting on both its sides with sets of leads of the respective adjacent lead frames. The semiconductor devices are singulated by sawing through the leads on each side of the common bars without sawing the common bars longitudinally. The material sawn off from the common bars in a first direction is removed by washing it away before sawing off the intermediate common bars that run in an orthogonal direction. The supporting frame structures include bars surrounding the array and singulation includes sawing beside the surrounding bars to saw them off before sawing off the intermediate common bars.

In a method of packaging a semiconductor IC, a tape is attached to a back surface of a lead frame array, and the lead frame array is held between an upper mold chase and a lower mold chase of a mold, with the back surface of the lead frame array upward. The upper and lower mold chases form an upper cavity and a lower cavity with respect to the lead frame array respectively. A mold compound is injected into the upper and lower cavities respectively. With respect to clearances between leads, between die pads and/or between the leads and the die pads, the mold compound injected into the upper cavity covers the portion of the tape over the clearances before the mold compound injected into the lower cavity fills the clearances, so that the tape is depressed. After curing the mold compound, removing the mold and de-taping, the mold compound filled in the clearances is recessed inward from the back surface, which increases the solderability in the subsequent surface mount process and decreases the possibility of the occurrence of lead short-circuits.

A lead frame has multiple regions having different wetting characteristics on its surface. For example, one region is formed to handle silver plating while another has less wetting ability. A boundary between the regions causes a wetting force difference that inhibits molten solder flow between regions during solder die bonding.
