Abstract

A leadless image sensor package constructed on a lead frame includes a die pad and a plurality of leads disposed at the periphery of the die pad. A molding compound, disposed on the top surface of the lead frame and being surrounding the die pad on the periphery of the lead frame, fills the clearance between the die pad and the leads and exposes, on the top surface, the die pad and the wire-bonding portion of the leads. Moreover, the lead frame and the molding compound constitute a “chip containing space” with chip set therein. Further, the chip with its back surface attached to the top surface of the die pad makes use of the wires to electrically connect to the bonding pad and the top surface of the wire-bonding portion, thereafter, a transparent lid is used to cap and seal the “chip containing space”.
