Patent ID: 11881476
Assignee: SEMTECH CORPORATION
Field: Semiconductors (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. A semiconductor device, comprising:
a leadframe;
a first semiconductor die comprising a first transient voltage suppression (TVS) diode disposed over the leadframe;
a second semiconductor die comprising a second TVS diode disposed over the first semiconductor die, wherein the first TVS diode and the second TVS diode are coupled in parallel between a first terminal of the leadframe and a second terminal of the leadframe; and
an encapsulant deposited over the first semiconductor die, the second semiconductor die, and the leadframe, wherein the semiconductor device is configured to protect a separate semiconductor package from a transient electrical signal by routing the transient electrical signal through the first TVS diode and the second TVS diode in parallel.
