Semiconductor Package with Low Parasitic Connection to Passive Device

A semiconductor assembly includes a semiconductor package that includes first and second transistor dies embedded within a package body, the first and second transistor dies being arranged laterally side by side within the package body such that a first load terminal of the first transistor die faces an upper surface of the package body and such that a second load terminal of the second transistor die faces the upper surface of the package body, and a discrete capacitor mounted on the semiconductor package such that a first terminal of the discrete capacitor is directly over and electrically connected to the first load terminal of the first semiconductor die and such that a second terminal of the discrete capacitor is directly over and electrically connected with the second load terminal of the second semiconductor die.
