Techniques are disclosed herein for forming a dual flat no-leads semiconductor package. The techniques begin with a package assembly that includes multiple non-singulated packages. The semiconductor package assembly includes a lead frame assembly having dies coupled thereto. A mold encapsulation covers at least portions of the dies and exposes a plurality of leads. A first cutting step exposes sidewalls of leads of the lead frame. An electroplating step deposits a plating on the exposed leads. A second cutting step cuts through the mold encapsulation aligned with the step cut sidewalls. A third cutting step perpendicular to the step cuts and is made through the lead frame and mold encapsulation to singulate the dies into individual packages.
