Abstract

A method of sealing a semiconductor device with resin includes the steps of coupling the tie bar of a lead frame to a heat sink; die bonding a semiconductor chip to the surface of the heat sink; wire bonding and electrically connecting the semiconductor chip to leads of the lead frame; placing the heat sink on the bottom surface of a cavity of a lower mold, putting an upper mold on the lower mold, and pressing down the coupling portion between the heat sink and lead frame toward the bottom surface by using a pressure member mounted on the upper mold; and injecting melted resin within the cavity defined by the upper and lower molds, and hardening the resin.
