Claim Text:
1. A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprising the steps: (a) providing a lead frame having first regions arranged in a matrix form, each first region having a chip mounting portion and a lead; (b) mounting a semiconductor chip over an upper surface of the chip mounting portion; (c) providing a clip frame having second regions arranged in a matrix form, each second region having a conductor plate, a frame unit, a first suspension lead, and a second suspension lead, each conductor plate being supported on the frame unit by the first suspension lead and the second suspension lead; (d) superimposing the clip frame over the lead frame so as to place the conductor plate over a first pad of the semiconductor chip to thereby mount the conductor plate over the lead from atop the first pad of the semiconductor chip; (e) after step (d), collectively sealing the first regions in the lead frame so as to cover the semiconductor chips and to form a sealing body; and (f) after step (e), cutting boundary regions of the first regions in the lead frame and cutting the first and second suspension leads in the clip frame, wherein each first suspension leads is formed with a first bent portion, and each second suspension leads is formed with a second bent portion, and wherein after step (f), ends of the first suspension leads are exposed from a side surface of the sealing body, and ends of the second suspension leads are exposed from another side surface of the sealing body.
