In a two-pole SMT miniature housing in leadframe technique for semiconductor components, a semiconductor chip is mounted on one leadframe part and is contacted to a further leadframe part. The further leadframe part is conducted out of the housing in which the chip is encapsulated as a solder terminal. No trimming or shaping process is required and the housing is tight and is capable of further miniaturization. The solder terminals as punched parts of the leadframe are conducted projecting laterally from the housing sidewalls residing opposite one another at least up to the housing floor which forms the components' mounting surface. The chip mounting surface and the components' mounting surface form a right angle with one another.
