Patent ID: 8283772

Claim:
A semiconductor device package comprising: a semiconductor device comprising a plurality of conductive pads in a wire-bonded arrangement; a plurality of bent leadfingers, wherein each bent leadfinger comprises a first surface extending over one of the plurality of conductive pads of said semiconductor device and coupled to the conductive pad of said semiconductor device and a second surface proximal to a bottom surface of said semiconductor device package, wherein said first surface is offset from said second surface by a bend in each of said plurality of bent leadfingers, and said semiconductor device is positioned between said first surface and said second surface in the offset formed by said bend in each of said plurality of bent leadfingers; a packaging material at least partially encapsulating said semiconductor device and said bend in each of said plurality of bent leadfingers, wherein said plurality of bent leadfingers extend from said packaging material to form pins; and wherein each bent leadfinger comprises a thickness that varies from a first thickness at an end extending over said semiconductor device proximal to the first surface to a second thickness at an end proximal to the second surface.
