ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for attaching a semiconductor die to a lead frame wherein the electric contact points of the semiconductor die are relocated to the periphery of the semiconductor die through a plurality of conductive traces. A plurality of leads extends from the lead frame over the conductive traces proximate the semiconductor die periphery and directly attaches to and makes electrical contact with the conductive traces in a LOC arrangement. Alternatively, a connector may contact a portion of the conductive trace to make contact therewith.
