Abstract:
A lead frame has a concavity formed on the upper-surface side of a metal plate and columnar portions  3  defined by the concavity. A horizontally deepest portion regarding a side face shape of the concavity is positioned lower than the vertical center position of the concavity. Thereby, overhangs projecting from the top faces of the columnar portions rarely cause shape defects or burr defects and thus the lead frame has an enhanced capability, by the columnar portions, of preventing a sealing resin from coming off without sacrificing the freedom of wiring design.

Claim (Index 1):
A lead frame having a concavity formed on an upper surface side of a metal plate, and columnar portions that are defined by the concavity and are to serve as internal connecting terminals, respectively, or internal connecting terminals and pads, respectively,\n wherein a horizontally deepest portion regarding a side face shape of the concavity is positioned lower than a vertical center position of the concavity.
