Abstract:
A lead frame, comprising:a plurality of lead fingers configured to extend from a first side of a row of bond pads on an active surface of an integrated circuit device, each lead finger of said plurality of lead fingers including a bond area configured for electrical connection to a bond pad of said row of bond pads on said active surface of an integrated circuit device; a first bus bar including at least an inner-digitized portion configured to traverse said active surface of said integrated circuit device on an opposite side of said row of bond pads, said inner-digitized portion including a plurality of alternating projections and recesses; and a second bus bar including at least an inner-digitized portion configured to traverse said active surface of said integrated circuit device on said opposite side of said row of bond pads, said inner-digitized portion including a plurality of alternating projections and recesses, each projection of said plurality of alternating projections and recesses on said first bus bar extending into one recess of said plurality of alternating projections and recesses on said second bus bar and terminating at an end configured for electrical connection to a bond pad of said row of bond pads on said active surface of said integrated circuit device, each projection of said plurality of alternating projections and recesses on said second bus bar extending into one recess of said plurality of alternating projections and recesses on said first bus bar and terminating at an end configured for electrical connection to a bond pad of said row of bond pads on said active surface of said integrated circuit device.
