Abstract:
1. A semiconductor device comprising: a first plurality of bonding pads arranged on a semiconductor device; and a second plurality of bonding pads arranged on the semiconductor device, wherein the first plurality of bonding pads forms a first row in a first plane parallel to a first edge of the semiconductor device, and the second plurality of bonding pads forms a second row in a second plane parallel to the first edge, the first plane proximal to the first edge, wherein one of the first plurality of bonding pads and one of the second plurality of bonding pads forms a differential pair, and wherein wires bonded to the first and second pluralities of bonding pads each extend to associated external bond fingers arranged in a single row parallel to the first edge of the semiconductor device, wherein a spacing between the wires bonded to the one of the first plurality of bonding pads and the one of the second plurality of bonding pads of the differential pair remains substantially uniform, wherein spacing between second bonding pads of the second plurality of bonding pads is variable.
