Abstract
A semiconductor package is proposed, in which a lid is attached to a semiconductor chip and appropriately spaced apart from a heat sink having a top surface thereof exposed to the outside an encapsulant, so as to prevent external moisture from condensing on the semiconductor chip and reduce a thermal stress effect on the semiconductor chip. Moreover, a thermal conductive path is reduced in a portion passing through the encapsulant, allowing the heat-dissipating efficiency to be improved. In addition, with no contact between the heat sink and the semiconductor chip, quality of the semiconductor package is assured with no damage to the semiconductor chip.
