Abstract:
A semiconductor component, comprising:a chip carrier having a first surface and a second surface and having openings extending from said first surface to said second surface; at least one semiconductor chip mounted on said first surface; soldering connection points located near said second surface of said chip carrier, said soldering connection points are formed by at least one metal foil that lines said openings and that extends through said openings from said first surface to said second surface; contact-making points that are electrically connected to said semiconductor chip and that form electrically conductive connections which extend through said openings in said chip carrier to said soldering connection points; a housing that surrounds at least said semiconductor chip; an elevation enabling electrical contact to be made with said at least one metal foil; and a further metal foil that is located between said semiconductor chip and said chip carrier and that forms a soldering connection point; said openings including at least one opening that is located underneath said semiconductor chip; said further metal foil extending through said opening that is located underneath said semiconductor chip to said first surface and to said second surface; each one of said openings having an interior; said elevation formed on said at least one metal foil in said interior of one of said openings; and said chip carrier having an edge and said openings located at said edge of said chip carrier.
