Abstract:
A method of making a semiconductor device assembly, comprising:providing a semiconductor device having internal circuitry and at least six conductive bond pads coupled thereto, the at least six conductive bond pads comprising at least a first bond pad adjacent a first edge of the semiconductor device and coupled to a first portion of the semiconductor device internal circuitry, at least a second bond pad coupled to the same first portion of the semiconductor device internal circuitry, at least a third bond pad adjacent the first edge of the semiconductor device and coupled to a second portion of the semiconductor device internal circuitry, at least a fourth bond pad coupled to the same second portion of the semiconductor device internal circuitry, at least a fifth bond pad adjacent a second edge of the semiconductor device and coupled to a third portion of the semiconductor device internal circuitry and at least a sixth bond pad coupled to the same third portion of the semiconductor device internal circuitry; providing a lead frame formed having a pair of rails and having a plurality of leads, a first number of the plurality of leads having a first length, having a first width, and having at least one lead having one of a substantially linearly shaped configuration and a substantially non-linearly shaped configuration, and a second number of the plurality of leads having a second length longer than the first length of the first number of the plurality of leads and having a second width wider than the first width of the first number of the plurality of leads; attaching a portion of the semiconductor device to a portion of the lead frame; and connecting the at least a first bond pad to at least a first lead of the first number of the plurality of leads of the lead frame located adjacent thereto, connecting the at least a third bond pad to at least a second lead of the second number of the plurality of leads of the lead frame located adjacent thereto, and connecting the at least a fifth bond pad to at least one lead of the second number of the plurality of leads of the lead frame located adjacent thereto.
