A semiconductor package such as a bumped chip carrier (BCC) package has projections
extending from a lower surface of a resin encapsulant. Each projection has a concave
depression formed thereon. By reflowing a solder layer, external terminals are
formed to cover the projections. An interface between the terminals and the projections
increases in area, relative to conventional structures, because of the concave
depressions. Therefore, the adhesive strength between the terminals and the projections
also increases, and, when the BCC package is mounted on a next-level circuit board
through the terminals, solder joint is also improved in reliability.
