Methods and Apparatus for Improved Thermal Performance and Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) Shielding in Leadframe Integrated Circuit (IC) Packages

摘要

A method of assembling an IC device package is provided. A leadframe is formed. At least one IC die is attached to a die attach pad portion of the leadframe. Wire bonds are coupled between the IC die and the leadframe. A cap is attached to the leadframe. A second surface of the cap includes a cavity formed therein. The cap and leadframe form an enclosure structure that substantially encloses the at least one IC die. An encapsulating material is applied to encapsulate at least the IC die. A perimeter support ring portion of the leadframe is trimmed.
