Abstract:
A semiconductor proximity sensor (100) has a flat leadframe (110) with a first (110a) and a second (110b) surface, the second surface being solderable; the leadframe includes a first (111) and a second (112) pad, a plurality of leads (113, 114), and fingers (115, 118) framing the first pad, the fingers spaced from the first pad by a gap (116) which is filled with a clear molding compound. A light-emitting diode (LED) chip (120) is assembled on the first pad and encapsulated by a first volume (140) of the clear compound, the first volume outlined as a first lens (141). A sensor chip (130) is assembled on the second pad and encapsulated by a second volume (145) of the clear compound, the second volume outlined as a second lens (146). Opaque molding compound (150) fills the space between the first and second volumes of clear compound, forms shutters (151) for the first and second lenses, and forms walls rising from the frame of fingers to create an enclosed cavity for the LED. A layer (180) of solder is on the second leadframe surface of the pads, leads, and fingers.

Abstract:
A method of forming an electronic assembly includes attaching a backside metal layer the bottomside of a semiconductor die. An area of the backside metal layer matches an area of the bottomside of the die. A die pad and leads are encapsulated within the molding material. The leads include an exposed portion that includes a bonding portion. A gap exposes the backside metal layer along a bottom surface of the package. Bond wires couple the pads on the topside of the die to the leads and the bonding portions. Packaged semiconductor device is soldered to a printed circuit board (PCB). The backside metal layer and the bonding portions of the leads are soldered substrate pads on said PCB.
