A semiconductor package device includes an insulative housing, a semiconductor
chip, and a lead, wherein the insulative housing includes a top surface, a bottom
surface, and a peripheral side surface between the top and bottom surfaces, the
bottom surface includes a peripheral portion and a central portion within the peripheral
portion, the peripheral portion protrudes downwardly from the central portion,
the chip includes a conductive pad, and the lead protrudes laterally from and extends
through the peripheral side surface and is electrically connected to the pad.
