Zusammenfassung:A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor die having a first major surface and a second major surface opposite the first major surface, a first minor surface and a second minor surface opposite the first minor surface, a plurality of contact pads on the first major surface, and a notch which extends from the first minor surface and the second major surface into the semiconductor die. The notch has a notch depth measured from the second major surface into the semiconductor die, wherein the notch depth is less than a thickness of the semiconductor die, and a notch length measured from the first minor surface into the semiconductor die, wherein the notch length is less than a length of the semiconductor die measured between the first and second minor surfaces. The device includes a lead having a first end in the notch, and an encapsulant over the first major surface.
