Abstract

A two-piece carrier ring is provided. First and second rings are affixed to opposing sides of the exterior portion of a leadframe and protect the leads from distortion. The rings are molded prior to bonding to the leadframe so that the rings may be formed from a wide variety of plastics. The premolded rings are polymerized prior to bonding preventing distortion of the leads by shrinking of the rings.
