1. A method of making a package containing an integrated circuit die, the method comprising:

  • providing an integrated circuit die having a perimeter;

    providing a planar substrate having a planar first surface, a metal die pad having a perimeter on the first surface of the substrate, and an electrically conductive path through the substrate;

    placing the integrated circuit die on the metal die pad, whereinthe metal die pad extends laterally beyond the entire perimeter of the integrated circuit die;

    electrically connecting the integrated circuit die to the electrically conductive path through the substrate;

    applying a bead of a viscous first adhesive material onto the first surface of the substrate around the integrated circuit die, said adhesive bead covering a peripheral portion of the metal die pad around the metal die pad;

    providing a planar lid with a planar first surface;

    placing the planar first surface of said lid onto the bead around the die such that the planar first surface of the lid is supported above the planar first surface of the substrate and the integrated circuit die by the adhesive bead; and

    hardening the adhesive bead.
