Patent ID: RE43443

Claim:
A semiconductor integrated circuit device comprising: a semiconductor chip having a main surface including semiconductor elements and a plurality of bonding pads; a leadframe having: a chip mounting portion for mounting said semiconductor chip; suspension leads unitarily formed with said chip mounting portion, a width of said chip mounting portion being wider than a width of each of said suspension leads, a plurality of inner lead portions arranged to surround said semiconductor chip and being electrically connected with said bonding pads by bonding wires, and a plurality of outer lead portions individually connected with said inner lead portions; and a resin member sealing said semiconductor chip, said inner lead portions, said chip mounting portion, said suspension leads and said bonding wires; wherein said chip mounting portion is smaller than said semiconductor chip and is positioned under a substantially central portion of said semiconductor chip, said semiconductor chip is fixed to said chip mounting portion by adhesive, said semiconductor chip is fixed to a part of each of said suspension leads by adhesive which is located under a peripheral portion of said semiconductor chip, and an adhesive region of said chip mounting portion and said semiconductor chip and an adhesive region of each of said suspension leads and said semiconductor chip are separated from each other and wherein said suspension leads and said chip mounting portion of said leadframe are continuously formed in an area of said semiconductor chip.
