Abstract
An electronic component includes an electrically conductive carrier. The electrically conductive carrier includes a carrier surface and a semiconductor chip includes a chip surface. One or both of the carrier surface and the chip surface include a non-planar structure. The chip is attached to the carrier with the chip surface facing towards the carrier surface so that a gap is provided between the chip surface and the carrier surface due to the non-planar structure of one or both of the carrier surface and the first chip surface. The electronic component further includes a first galvanically deposited metallic layer situated in the gap.
