Abstract
An axially-mountable device includes a semiconductor chip comprising lower and upper electrical contacts. A lower die pad is electrically and mechanically connected to the lower electrical contact of the chip. An upper die pad is electrically and mechanically connected to the upper electrical contact of the chip. A first axially extending electrical lead is electrically and mechanically connected to the upper die pad and extends in a first axial direction. A second axially extending electrical lead is electrically and mechanically connected to the lower die pad and extends in a second axial direction that is opposite to the first axial direction. Packaging material encapsulates the semiconductor chip, the upper and lower die pads and a portion of the first and second axially extending leads. The first and second leads extend from the packaging material and are adapted to allow the device to be axially-mounted with another electrical component.
