Patent ID: 7148564

Claim:
An integrated circuit package, comprising: a first non-conductive substrate having a first inner surface; at least one first contact pad disposed on said first inner surface for selective electrical communication with circuit elements through conductors carried by said first substrate; a second non-conductive substrate having a second inner surface; at least one second contact pad disposed on said second inner surface for selective electrical communication with circuit elements through conductors carried by said second substrate, wherein said first and second contact pads are opposed from one another; a die disposed between said first and second inner surfaces, said die having a first thickness; and a leadframe including a member having a proximal end and a distal end, said proximal end having a second thickness less than said first thickness, said distal end being disposed between said first and second inner surfaces, said distal end being undulated such that said distal end has an effective thickness greater than said second thickness to effect bridging of said opposed contact pads.
