Abstract:
1. An electronic component, comprising a vertical semiconductor device comprising a first major surface and a third major surface which opposes the first major surface, an electrically conductive contact clip comprising a second major surface, wherein at least part of the second major surface is positioned facing towards and spaced at a distance from the first major surface to provide a first gap, an electrically conductive chip carrier comprising a fourth major surface, wherein at least a part of the fourth major surface is positioned facing towards and spaced at a distance from the third major surface to provide a second gap, wherein a first galvanically deposited metallic layer extends between the first major surface and the second major surface and electrically connects the semiconductor device with the contact clip and a second galvanically deposited metallic layer extends between the third major surface and the fourth major surface and electrically connects the semiconductor device and the chip carrier.
