Claim 18:
19. An integrated circuit, comprising:
an electrically conductive pad having a generally planar top surface that includes a cavity having a bottom surface and sidewalls extending from the bottom surface of the cavity to the top surface of the electrically conductive pad;
a metal plating layer deposited on the top surface of the electrically conductive pad and the bottom surface of the cavity;
an electronic device attached to the top surface of the electrically conductive pad;
a wire bond attached from the electronic device to the bottom surface of the cavity;
a laminate layer deposited on the metal plating layer, the laminate layer covering an end of the wire bond that connects to the metal plating layer deposited on the bottom surface of the cavity; and
a mold compound encapsulating the electronic device.
