Abstract
A leadframe and a semiconductor package adopting the leadframe, capable of effectively preventing moisture intrusion into the semiconductor package, and preventing flashing and reducing thermal stress on a chip pad during a molding process. The chip pad of the leadframe includes: at least two swaged portions; narrow and long grooves on the first and second surfaces thereof, formed in a V-like or U-like shape along the four sides of the chip pad in a rectangular shape; at least one slot formed along the outside of a chip mount area; and wings adjacent to the slots.
