Abstract

A semiconductor package for chip with testing contact pad includes a chip, a plurality of leads, at least a flow-conducting plate, and a molding compound. The chip has an active surface provided with a plurality of functional contact pads and at least a testing contact pad. The leads are bonded onto the active surface of the chip and respectively connected to the functional contact pads through a plurality of functional wires. The flow-conducting plate is connected to the testing contact pad through at least a testing wire. The molding compound encapsulates the chip, the leads, the flow-conducting plate, the functional contact pads, and the testing contact pads.
