Claim Text:
1. A method of making a semiconductor device, comprising: providing a leadframe including a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface of the leadframe, the leadframe including a first finger and a second finger with a die mounting site disposed between the first finger and second finger, wherein a first portion of the first finger and a second portion of the second finger extend between the first surface and second surface of the leadframe and a first notched portion of the first finger extends from the first portion of the first finger along the second surface of the leadframe and a second notched portion of the second finger extends from the second portion of the first finger along the second surface of the leadframe, wherein the first notched portion of the first finger and the second notched portion of the second finger each have a height less than a height between the first surface and second surface of the leadframe; disposing a first semiconductor die over the die mounting site between the first finger and the second finger; forming a bond wire between a contact pad on the first semiconductor die and the first notched portion of the first finger; depositing an encapsulant over the first semiconductor die and bond wire and further over the first notched portion of the first finger and the second notched portion of the second finger, wherein a surface of the encapsulant is coplanar with the first surface of the leadframe; and forming a bump over the first surface or second surface over the first portion of the first finger after depositing the encapsulant.
