A flip-chip semiconductor package with a lead frame and a method for
fabricating the same are provided. The lead frame has a plurality of
leads, each lead having an upper surface, a lower surface, and an inner
end directed toward the center of the lead frame. A recessed portion is
formed on the upper surface of the inner end of each lead, making the
inner end shaped as a stepped structure. The depth of the recessed
portion is equal to a height of a reflow-collapsed solder bump that is
for electrically connecting a chip to the lead. At least one chip is
electrically connected to the leads in a flip-chip manner via a plurality
of solder bumps bonded to the recessed portions. An encapsulation body is
formed to encapsulate the lead frame, chip and solder bumps, with the
lower surfaces of the leads being exposed from the encapsulation body.
