Patent ID: 8680660

Claim:
A semiconductor device, comprising: a die flag; an integrated circuit die attached to a top surface of the die flag; a plurality of first leads spaced from a first side edge of the die flag; a first dummy lead spaced from a second side edge of the die flag; a second dummy lead spaced from a third side edge of the die flag opposite the second side edge; a plurality of first bond wires extending from a first set of bond pads on a top surface of the integrated circuit die to a first set of the plurality of first leads for electrically connecting the first set of bond pads to the first set of first leads; a plurality of second bond wires extending from a second set of bond pads on the top surface of the integrated circuit die to a second set of the plurality of first leads for electrically connecting the second set of bond pads to the second set of first leads; and at least one insulated bond wire extending from the first dummy lead to the second dummy lead and between the first and second pluralities of bond wires, wherein the at least one insulated bond wire prevents the plurality of second bond wires from sagging and contacting ones of the plurality of first bond wires.
