Abstract:
1. An integrated circuit package comprising: a substrate having a bottom surface and an opposing top surface, the substrate including a dielectric material and an interconnect layer that is embedded in the dielectric material; a leadframe that underlies the substrate and that includes a die attach pad and a plurality of leads that are physically attached to and electrically coupled with the substrate wherein a first lead of the plurality of leads, which is directly connected to the die attach pad, extends upward from the die attach pad to come in electrical and physical contact with the overlying substrate and extends further beyond the substrate such that the first lead is exposed on the exterior of the integrated circuit package, the first lead being arranged to electrically and physically couple the integrated circuit package with an external device; an integrated circuit having an active surface and an opposing back surface, the integrated circuit sandwiched between the substrate and the leadframe, the active surface of the integrated circuit physically and electrically connected with the bottom surface of the substrate, the back surface of the integrated circuit mounted on the die attach pad of the leadframe; a molding material that encapsulates at least portions of the substrate, the leadframe and the integrated circuit; and an electrical component mounted on the top surface of the substrate, the electrical component being electrically coupled with the integrated circuit through the interconnect layer in the substrate.
