Abstract
A semiconductor device that includes multiple heat sinks is provided along with methods for forming a semiconductor device having multiple heat sinks. The semiconductor device includes a first heat sink that is configured as a conductive lead frame. The conductive lead frame is electrically coupled to a conducting area of a semiconductor die. The semiconductor device also includes a second heat sink that is configured as a conductive clip. The conductive clip is electrically coupled to another conducting area of the die. Alternative embodiments of the device may include more than two heat sinks.
