Abstract

A method of producing a molded semiconductor package includes: attaching a first load terminal at a first side of a semiconductor die to a leadframe, the semiconductor die having a second load terminal at a second side opposite the first side and a control terminal at the first side or the second side; encapsulating the semiconductor die in a laser-activatable mold compound so that the leadframe is at least partly exposed from the laser-activatable mold compound at a first side of the molded semiconductor package, and the second load terminal is at least partly exposed from the laser-activatable mold compound at a second side of the molded semiconductor package opposite the first side; and laser activating a first region of the laser-activatable mold compound to form a first laser-activated region that is electrically conductive.
