Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a semiconductor package and an assembling method thereof, where a bonding failure is prevented from occurring between the tip of a lead and a bonding wire. SOLUTION: In a semiconductor package, leads 301 to 304 are arranged to extend on a support board 2, and close contact grooves 31 to 34 are each provided to the inner parts of the leads 301 to 304. As the leads 301 to 304 are provided with the close contact grooves 31 to 34, the rear parts of the bonding regions of the tips of the inner parts of the leads can be brought into close contact with the surface of the support board 2 by pressing the tips of the inner parts with a lead pressing jig 12. Bonding wires 5 are each bonded to the tips of the inner parts by ultrasonic bonding. The close contact grooves 31 to 34 may be recessed, V-shaped or U-shaped in cross section.

Are electrically connected through a bonding wire 150. The bonding wire 150 is bonded by a well-known wire bonding method during an assembly process of the resin-sealed semiconductor package. That is, one end of the bonding wire 150 is bonded to the bonding pad 141 of the semiconductor chip 140 and the other end is bonded to the tip of each of the inner portions of the leads 130 to 139 by a capillary of a wire bonding apparatus (not shown). In bonding, ultrasonic vibration is applied to the capillary in a direction parallel to the surface of the bonding pad 141 and the surface of the tip of the inner portion. In bonding, each of the semiconductor chip 140 and the leads 130 to 139 is heated by a heater.

The inner portions of the leads 130, 131, 135, and 136 are connected to the leads 130, 131, 13, respectively.
In order to obtain sufficient electrical insulation between the support substrates 120 and 5,136, they are arranged at a predetermined distance from the surface of the support substrate 120, for example, about 0.3 mm to 0.5 mm. At the time of wire bonding, the bonding wire 150 is bonded to the tip of the inner portion in a state where the inner portion is pressed against the surface of the support substrate 120 by a pressing jig denoted by reference numeral 160 in FIG. . However, even if the inner portion is pressed by the holding jig 160, the inner portion, particularly most of the bonding region at the tip of the inner portion, is mostly used because of the elasticity of the inner portion.
Thus, the bonding wire 150 is lifted from the surface of the inner portion and cannot be strongly pressed against the tip of the inner portion. Further, the lifting causes the tip of the inner portion to slide on the surface of the support substrate 120, so that the bonding surface cannot be sufficiently rubbed by ultrasonic vibration. As a result, the leads 130, 131, 135, 136
There is a possibility that a bonding failure may occur between each of these and the bonding wire 150, and there is a problem that the electrical reliability of the resin-encapsulated semiconductor package is reduced.

In the first feature of the present invention, when a plurality of leads are provided, it is not always necessary to provide all of the leads with a contact groove, and at least the lead extends over the support substrate, that is, overlaps on a plane pattern. It is only necessary that a groove for contact be formed in the lead arranged in such a manner. Further, the first aspect of the present invention
In the semiconductor package according to the above feature, the contact groove is
When external force is applied to the lead, at least the back surface of the tip of the lead is surely brought into close contact with the surface of the support substrate. Therefore, as long as the groove has such a function, the shape of the groove for contact is not limited. For example, the groove for contact is a concave groove (the bottom corner of the groove is substantially at a right angle), a V-shaped groove, and a U-shaped groove.
A groove having various cross-sectional shapes such as a mold groove (a bottom corner of the groove is rounded) can be used. However, in the case of a V-shaped groove,
When the lead is pressed against the support plate by the holding jig, cracks are likely to occur from the corners. Therefore, a concave or U-shaped cross section is desirable. These grooves can be easily formed by etching or machining before or after forming the lead frame. The depth of the contact groove formed on the surface of the lead allows the lead to easily adhere to the support substrate, and ensures the mechanical strength of the lead while maintaining the current of the mounted semiconductor chip. In order to secure a sufficient capacity, the lead is preferably formed to have a dimension in the range of 1/3 to 1/2 of the thickness of the lead.

In such a method of assembling a semiconductor package, when the lead is pressed against the support substrate, a change in the shape of the lead is promoted by the contact groove, and the tip of the lead is attached to the support substrate so that the position of the lead tip does not change. Can be in close contact. By bonding the tip of the lead and the bonding wire in this close contact state, electrical and mechanical connection between the tip of the lead and the bonding wire can be reliably performed, and bonding failure can be prevented. . Therefore, in the process of assembling the semiconductor package, the number of defective products can be reduced, so that the yield can be improved. In the method of assembling a semiconductor package according to the second aspect of the present invention, the tips of the leads extending on the support substrate do not necessarily have to be in close contact with the support substrate when the semiconductor package is completed. The lead tip and the support substrate only need to be in close contact at least at the time of bonding between the lead tip and the bonding wire.

Alternatively, while the semiconductor chip 4 is heated, ultrasonic vibration is further applied to the capillary 10 in a direction parallel to the surface of the tip of the inner portion. In the second bonding, the tip of the inner portion is in close contact with the surface of the support substrate 2 by the contact groove 34, and the support substrate 2 acts as a pedestal at the tip of the inner portion during bonding. Thereby, the bonding wire 5 can be pressed strongly. Further, in the second bonding, since the tip of the inner portion is pressed by the lead holding jig 12 in a state where the tip of the inner portion is in close contact with the surface of the support substrate 2 by the contact groove 34, the ultrasonic vibration is applied to the capillary 10. Is applied, there is no displacement of the tip of the inner part, and the power of ultrasonic vibration can be sufficiently applied. Therefore, the bonding wire 5 can be strongly rubbed against the surface of the tip of the inner portion by the ultrasonic power. Therefore, the bonding between the surface of the inner portion tip and the bonding wire 5 can be reliably performed, so that a bonding defect, particularly a second bonding defect, can be prevented.
