Abstract

A semiconductor package having an encapsulation that encapsulates an integrated circuit chip and an external lead frame for the chip. Multiple connection leads project from the periphery of the encapsulation. At least one external face of the encapsulation is covered with a layer of electrically conductive material, and the conducting material layer has at least one lateral extension that electrically contacts at least one of the projecting connection leads. A method of manufacturing such a semiconductor package is also provided.
