Patent ID: 10910294

Abstract:
A packaged electronic device includes a substrate comprising a die pad and a lead spaced apart from the die. An electronic device is attached to the die pad top side. A conductive clip is connected to the substrate and the electronic device, and the conductive clip comprises a plate portion attached to the device top side with a conductive material, a clip connecting portion connected to the plate portion and the lead, and channels disposed to extend inward from a lower side of the plate portion above the device top side. The conductive material is disposed within the channels. In another example, the plate portion comprises a lower side having a first sloped profile in a first cross-sectional view such that an outer section of the first sloped profile towards a first edge portion of the plate portion is spaced away from the electronic device further than an inner section of the first sloped profile towards a central portion of the plate portion. Other examples and related methods are also disclosed herein.
