[0004] In recent years, wafer scale CSPs (chip size packages) capable of reducing the outer dimensions to dimensions similar to or close to the size of a semiconductor chip have begun to attract attention. This is described with reference to FIG.
The semiconductor wafer 61 is subjected to various pretreatments such as diffusion to form a large number of semiconductor elements 62, and as shown in FIG. 12B, the upper portion of the semiconductor wafer 61 is covered with the resin layer 63 and the surface of the resin layer 63 is covered. The electrode 64 for external connection is led out, and then the dicing line 60 of the semiconductor wafer 61 is formed.
The semiconductor element 62 is divided along the line to obtain a completed product as shown in FIG. The resin layer 63 only covers the front surface (the back surface may be covered) of the semiconductor element 62, and the silicon semiconductor substrate is exposed on the side wall of the semiconductor element 62. The electrode 64 is electrically connected to an integrated circuit network formed below the resin layer 63, and the semiconductor device is mounted by adhering the electrode 64 to a conductive pattern formed on a mounting substrate. .

However, there are various problems in the mounting structure shown in FIG. First
In addition, since an expensive substrate material such as ceramic or glass epoxy is used and an expensive metal paste such as tungsten is used, it cannot be said that the mounting structure is low cost. Second
In addition, in order to connect electrodes and the like on both sides, a via hole penetrating the insulating substrate is indispensable, and the processing accuracy is 0.15
The limit of about mm is an obstacle to further miniaturization. Third, since the inside of the via hole is filled with a metal paste, workability is extremely poor, which causes an increase in cost. Fourth, the process is divided into a pre-process for forming a semiconductor device and a post-process for assembling a semiconductor device using an insulating substrate.
(Turn Around Time) is long, and the manufacturing cost is high.

A feature of the manufacturing method of the present invention resides in that a collector extraction electrode is formed in a collector region. Thereby, the collector can be taken out from the surface of the semiconductor substrate, and the operating portion can be arranged below the collector pad electrode by forming the electrode as a multilayer wiring. If an external connection electrode is formed by a solder ball on each pad electrode, a chip size package at a wafer level can be realized. Further, the resin sealing process can be omitted, and the assembly cost is not required, so that the cost can be significantly reduced.

As described above, according to the present invention, there is an advantage that it is possible to realize a package structure which can adopt a flip-chip method which can be further downsized than a semiconductor device using a lead frame.

At this time, since the structure is such that the lead terminals do not protrude, the occupied area at the time of mounting is reduced, and an extra area for the collector lead-out electrode is not required. Then, the pellet size which is almost the same as that of the conventional product can be obtained. In addition, miniaturization and thinning, which are required by the market, are possible, and although this is an expected value, specifically, in the case of a 15V / 3A class, the mounting area is SC-5.
In the case of 9, what was 8.12 mm 2 becomes about 1/10,
In addition, the mounting height is 1.1 mm or less in the SC-59 outer shape, but is 以下 or less.

Further, since the extraction electrode is formed directly on the silicon semiconductor substrate on which the semiconductor element is formed, it is not necessary to use a ceramic substrate as in the conventional case, and it is not necessary to fix the semiconductor element to another mounting member.
