Compared with the DBC technology, the ceramic copper-clad substrate obtained by the AMB method is better in thermal conductivity and insulation reliability, has more excellent thermal cycle reliability, and is more suitable for being used in high-voltage and high-power semiconductor devices.
The soldering lug/solder is one of the cores of the AMB technology, wherein the soldering lug is a Ti foil soldering lug mainly comprising an active element Ti, when the soldering lug is sintered at high temperature, an interface reaction will occur between copper and ceramic, the interface reaction is weak, the bonding strength of a product is not high, and copper-ceramic bonding cannot be realized; if the interface reaction is too strong, the interface reaction layer is too thick, which also causes the product performance to be reduced, and the selection of a proper soldering lug is very important. The thickness of the Ti foil welding piece is an important control factor, the mature rolling process is mainly used for producing foils with the thickness of more than or equal to 10 micrometers, the thickness of the Ti foil welding piece for active metal brazing is about 2-5 micrometers, and within the range, the thinner the Ti foil welding piece is, the higher the copper-ceramic bonding strength is, the better the performance is. At present, a rolling process is adopted to produce Ti foil soldering lugs with the width of 132-150mm and the thickness of 2-5 microns, the yield is low, and the cost is increased greatly compared with soldering lugs with the thickness of 10 microns.
