In a semiconductor package, a die has electrical circuits formed on a first side surface. A lead frame for connecting the electrical circuits to a power source is connected to the electrical circuits of the die. A package body made of a dielectric material is formed around the die and the lead frame. One or more fins made of a thermally conductive material are independently attached to the die by a thermally conductive bond. The fins, receive heat directly from the die, and dissipate the heat by radiative or convection cooling into the surrounding environment.
