[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of semiconductor packaging, especially to a IPM multi-base island lead frame. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the modern semiconductor packaging field, intelligent power modules (IPM) have been widely used due to their ability to achieve efficient power conversion and control functions in power electronic devices. IPM usually integrates multiple power chips and control chips, which puts higher requirements on the design of lead frames.
