Claim 0:
1. An electronic device, comprising:
a package for mounting on a mounting base and for being thermally coupled with a heat sink, wherein the package comprises:
a carrier to be thermally coupled with the heat sink;
an electronic component mounted at the carrier;
leads electrically coupled with the electronic component and to be electrically coupled with the mounting base;
an encapsulant encapsulating at least part of the electronic component, at least part of the carrier, and part of the leads;
wherein a main surface of the package is constituted by a planar area defined by material of the encapsulant and by a surface of the carrier;
a linear spacer which protrudes beyond the planar area;

the heat sink mounted on the package so as to be thermally coupled with the carrier; and
the linear spacer defining a spacing between the carrier and the heat sink.
