Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a method, including attaching a semiconductor chip to a chip mounting portion on at least one leadframe portion, and attaching a passive component on a passive component mounting portion of the at least one leadframe portion. The method further includes forming a laser direct structuring (LDS) activatable molding material over the semiconductor chip, passive component, and the at least one leadframe portion. Desired patterns of structured areas are formed within the LDS activatable molding material by activating the LDS activatable molding material. The desired patterns of structured areas are metallized to form conductive areas within the LDS activatable molding material to thereby form electrical connection between the semiconductor chip and the passive component. A passivation layer is formed on the LDS activatable molding material.
Abstract:
An antenna-in-package semiconductor device includes a semiconductor chip coupled to a planar substrate. An encapsulation body encapsulates the semiconductor chip. The encapsulation body includes a through cavity extending to the planar substrate. A rectilinear wire antenna is mounted within the through cavity and extends, for instance from the planar substrate, along an axis that is transverse to a surface of the planar substrate to which the semiconductor chip is coupled. The rectilinear wire antenna is electrically coupled to the semiconductor chip. An insulating material fills the cavity to encapsulated the rectilinear wire antenna.
