A molded package comprises at least a first metal member, a second metal member,
and a third metal member. Each member includes an end portion inserted into a mold
member where a recess is formed and another end portion protruding from an outer
wall of the mold member. A portion of each main surface of the metal members is
exposed from the mold member in the bottom of the recess. A portion of each main
surface can be also divided into at least two bonding regions by a wall portion
comprising part of the mold member. A semiconductor device of the present invention
comprises the molded package, a semiconductor component, and an encapsulating member
covering the semiconductor component, and has a high reliability.
