Appeal No. 1999-0139 Application No. 08/542,576 having specified properties. Claim 1 is illustrative: 1. A fabrication process of a semiconductor package, comprising the steps of: (1) bonding a semiconductor chip to a lead frame with an adhesive member; and (2) molding a molding compound so that the molding compound covers at least said semiconductor chip and a bonded part between the semiconductor chip and said lead frame, wherein: said adhesive member is a composite adhesive sheet comprising a heat-resistant film and a coating layer of an adhesive applied on both major surfaces of the heat resistant film; and said adhesive is a heat-resistant adhesive having a coming-out length of not more than 2 mm and a water absorption rate of not more than 3 wt.%.[1] THE REFERENCES Newman et al. (Newman) 4,545,840 Oct. 08, 1985 Pashby et al. (Pashby) 4,862,245 Aug. 29, The appellants define “coming-out length” as “the length of a came-out1 peripheral portion of a 19 x 50 mm wide adhesive film of 25 Fm in thickness as measured at a central part in the direction of the longer surfaces of the adhesive film when the adhesive film is pressed at 350ºC under 3 MPa for one minute” (specification, page 8, lines 7-11). 2Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
