ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor device that has a semiconductor die having at least two opposing major electrodes and a control electrode. Conductive clips, each having a base portion and a contact portion, are connected to respective electrodes at their bases by a respective layer of conductive material. A passivation layer is disposed on at least one of the electrodes and surrounds the layers of conductive material. The base portion and the contact portion of one of the clips are connected by an extension, which extends between the major surfaces of the semiconductor die.
