Definitions
- the invention relates to a semiconductor component consisting of a housing, a carrier plate, at least one ceramic substrate, which is provided with a metallization at least on its upper side.
- the semiconductor component also has at least two switching elements which are arranged on the upper side of the ceramic substrate in an electrically conductive manner and each have a load current connection and a control connection.
- the load current connection elements can have a first or a second supply potential.
- Such semiconductor components are used, for example, in motor vehicles between at least one battery-based low-voltage electrical system on the one hand and a starter generator as a starter or charging device for the respective battery on the other hand. They are used in overrun operation of the motor vehicle to adapt the voltage and power of the starter generator, which then functions as a generator, to the corresponding operating data of the respective battery to be recharged and when the starter generator, which then operates as a motor, is started with the aid of the respective battery to ensure a sufficient start Torque with a correspondingly high starting current.
- the essential components of such a circuit arrangement include in particular a number of semiconductor half bridges as power components, a number of intermediate circuit components, in particular capacitors, and a number of control elements, in particular driver stages.
- Such a thing Semiconductor component is known for example from DE 196 45 636 Cl, which is used to control an electric motor.
- MOSFETs switching elements. These are switched on or off by a control voltage applied between the source contact and the gate contact.
- the control voltage is placed between the source connection and the gate connection.
- the wire leading to the source contact has a self-inductance, which has the effect that the load current, which changes over time when the MOSFET is switched on or off, induces a voltage in the inductance which counteracts the control voltage with a switching delay. If you connect several MOSFETs in parallel and control them together from a single voltage source, the above-mentioned inductance leads to tolerances of high-frequency vibrations with amplitudes occurring in the control circuit due to unavoidable components, which can destroy the MOSFET.
- EP 0 265 833 B1 proposes arranging the conductor tracks which are connected to the source terminals on one side of the MOSFET and the conductor tracks for the control on the other side of the MOSFET. This results in an extensive magnetic decoupling of the control circuit from the source connections of the semiconductor component.
- the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a semiconductor component which does not have the disadvantageous effect of the leakage inductances and which can be produced in a simple manner.
- At least one ceramic substrate which is metallized at least on its upper side
- At least two switching elements which are arranged on the top of the ceramic substrate in an electrically conductive manner and each have load current connections and a control connection,
- the load current connection elements being able to have a first or a second supply potential
- the load current connection elements located on one housing side and assigned to two adjacent switching elements are acted upon with the first or with the second supply potential.
- the load current connection elements of which on one side of the housing have a different polarity.
- the advantages of the invention can be achieved with any even number of switching elements.
- the large number of even-numbered switching elements are advantageously arranged next to one another on an alignment line.
- the feeds between the load current connection elements and the load current connections of the switching elements arranged next to one another advantageously run approximately orthogonally to the alignment line mentioned.
- the assigned load current connection elements then alternately have the first and the second supply potential.
- a very compact structure of the semiconductor component can be achieved in this way. There is only a small area for suitable conductor tracks or for the Feeds are provided, which enables an inexpensive construction.
- a switching element preferably consists of two series-connected semiconductor switches, the connection point of which is connected to a load current connection element and forms an output of the semiconductor component.
- the two series-connected semiconductor switches are preferably arranged on an approximately orthogonal alignment line to the first or the second side. As is known, a half bridge is hereby formed.
- the plurality or part of the plurality of switching elements or half bridges are connected in parallel by means of the metalization and / or bonding wires in order to increase the current carrying capacity of the semiconductor component. This enables use in high performance ranges.
- MOSFETs or IGBTs are preferably used as switching elements. Basically, any controllable semiconductor switch can be used.
- the invention is preferably used to control a phase of a 3-phase inverter module.
- the semiconductor component then represents a very low-inductance half-bridge.
- the invention is illustrated by the single figure.
- the semiconductor component 1 shows this in a plan view.
- This has a housing 2 which is connected to a carrier plate 3.
- Three ceramic substrates 4, which are arranged towards the interior of the housing, are applied to the carrier plate 3 by way of example. A single ceramic substrate could also be used.
- Each of the ceramic substrates 4 is provided with a metallization 5 (not shown), on which an even number of switching elements 6 are applied.
- the left and the middle ceramic substrate 4 each have four switching elements 6.
- Each switching element 6 consists of two semiconductor switches 17, 17 ⁇ . These are arranged on an alignment line, which are arranged approximately orthogonally to the two long sides 13, 14 of the housing 2.
- Semiconductor switches 17, 17 ⁇ can for example be designed as a MOSFET or as an IGBT.
- Each of the two semiconductor switches 17, 17 is connected to the metallization 5 via bonding wires 16. Furthermore, each semiconductor switch 17, 17 ⁇ is connected to a load current connection element 10 via a feed 9.
- the feed 9 can for example be designed as a bond wire or as a single wire.
- the feeder 9 is arranged approximately in the line of alignment of the two semiconductor switches 17, 17 ⁇ .
- the load current connection elements 10 are fastened in the present figure in so-called guide elements 15 on the inside of the housing.
- This mechanical design merely represents a variant of how the switching elements 6 can be contacted to the outside via the feeds 9. Any other variant is of course conceivable.
- the uppermost left load current connection element 10 is connected to a first supply potential, which could be the ground potential, for example.
- the load current connection element 10 which is adjacent to it on the right, has a second supply potential 12 applied to it.
- This load current connection element is assigned to a second switching element 6.
- the load current connection elements 10 are alternately acted upon on the first side 13 of the housing 2 by the first supply potential 11 and the second supply potential 12 (from left to right).
- the load current connection elements 10 are alternately acted upon first with the second 12, then with the first supply potential 11.
- the inductance can be reduced with the semiconductor component according to the invention from 50 nH to 5 nH.
- the semiconductor switches 17, 17 are MOSFETs.
- the source contact of the MOSFET 17, 17 ⁇ is arranged on the top, while the drain contact is on the back and is electrically and mechanically connected to the metallization.
- the following load current path then results from the top to the bottom of the switching element 6 arranged on the far left: first supply potential 11 at the load current connection element 10 - supply 9 ⁇ - source of the semiconductor switch 17 ⁇ (top of the semiconductor switch) - drain of the semiconductor switch 17 (bottom of the semiconductor switch) - metallization 5 - Bonding wire 16 - Source contact of the semiconductor switch 17 (top of the semiconductor switch) - Drain contact of the semiconductor switch 17 (bottom of the semiconductor switch) - Metallization - Feed 9 - Load current connection element 10, connected to the second supply potential.
- Load current connection element 10 connected to the first supply potential (reference potential).
- capacitors can also be arranged, for example, to further reduce overvoltages. Compared to the prior art, these capacitors can, however, be dimensioned considerably smaller and therefore more cost-effectively. It is also conceivable to accommodate the control for the semiconductor switches 17, 17 ⁇ on the ceramic substrate 4 arranged on the right. However, this could also be outside the semiconductor component.
- the semiconductor component according to the invention represents a half-bridge in the manner described.
- a 3-phase inverter module can then be controlled. This can advantageously be used in a motor vehicle and, for example, control a three-phase motor, which replaces both an alternator and a starter. It can be used on both 12 V and 42 V electrical systems.
- the invention can be used expediently in all applications which have high current steepness.
- use in converter technology would be conceivable.
