Abstract

A plurality of slits are formed in a die pad of a lead-frame for mounting a semiconductor chip, and are arranged in such a manner as to nearly equalize the length of peripheral sub-areas of the die pad uncovered with the semiconductor chip, thereby effectively absorbing a shrinkage and an elongation due to a difference in thermal expansion coefficient among the die pad, the semiconductor chip and a plastic package hermetically sealing the semiconductor chip.
