Abstract:
1. A method for producing a semiconductor device, comprising the steps of: producing a shallow metal basin having a hollow container portion with a top end, a bottom end, and an outer side wall, said shallow metal basin also having a bottom plate at said bottom end of said hollow container portion, said shallow metal basin additionally having a flange outwardly extending from said outer side wall of said hollow container portion at said top end thereof, said flange having a bottom side that is oriented toward said bottom end of said container portion and that is spaced apart from said bottom end by a predetermined distance, adhering a semiconductor device chip having at least one semiconductor device element disposed therein and at least one bonding pad arranged therein within said hollow container portion on said bottom plate, producing an insulator frame having at least one bonding pad arranged at a first surface thereof, said at least one bonding pad arranged on said insulator frame being connected with a corresponding bonding pad arranged along a second surface of said insulator frame through a conductor layer lining a through-hole penetrating said insulator frame, fitting an internal closed surface of said insulator frame around said side wall of said hollow container portion, with said first surface of said insulator frame facing said bottom surface of said flange, connecting said at least one bonding pad arranged on said semiconductor device chip and said at least one bonding pad arranged on said first surface of said insulator frame, and covering said semiconductor device chip and a part of said at least one bonding pad arranged on said first surface of said insulator frame with a resin cover, employing a molding process, wherein said insulator frame has a predetermined thickness that is at least as large as approximately said distance between said bottom side of said flange and said bottom end of said hollow container portion, so that said bottom end of said hollow container portion does not protrude past said second surface of said insulator frame.
