ABSTRACT:
A process for fabricating an integrated circuit package includes mounting a semiconductor die on a first surface of a metal carrier and forming electrical connections between the semiconductor die and ones of a plurality of contacts on the metal carrier. Next, using a molding material in a mold, the semiconductor die and the contacts are molded in the molding material, between the metal carrier and a metal strip. The metal carrier and the metal strip are etched away and the integrated circuit package is singulated.
