Patent ID: 7659618

Claim:
A semiconductor device for radio frequencies of more than 10 GHz comprising: a semiconductor chip which, on its active top side, comprises a radio-frequency region and a low-frequency region and/or a region which is supplied with DC voltage, the low-frequency region and/or the region which is supplied with DC voltage of the semiconductor chip being embedded in a plastic housing composition and the plastic housing composition being arranged such that it is spaced apart from the radio-frequency region, by a cavity, on the active top side of the semiconductor chip, wherein the radio-frequency region comprises at least one contact area having a bonding wire which is partially arranged in the cavity and is partially arranged in the plastic housing composition, and wherein the bonding wire is fixed in an adhesive layer between a cover and a wall structure of the cavity, the adhesive layer having a thickness which is greater than or equal to the diameter of the bonding wire.
