Semiconductor package with wire bond joints

Abstract

A semiconductor package includes: a semiconductor die attached to a leadframe and having a first bond pad at a side of the semiconductor die facing away from the leadframe; a metal clip having a first bonding region attached to the first bond pad of the semiconductor die by a plurality of first wire bonds which extend through a plurality of first openings in the first bonding region of the metal clip, the plurality of first wire bonds forming a joint between the metal clip and the first bond pad of the semiconductor die; and a joint between the plurality of first wire bonds and the metal clip at a side of the metal clip facing away from the semiconductor die. Additional semiconductor package embodiments and related methods of manufacture are also described.
