Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a semiconductor device with its bonding pad surfaces protected from deterioration, corrosion, or the like, and to provide a method for manufacturing the same. SOLUTION: An insulating film such as a silicon oxide film is deposited on surfaces of bonding pads each made of a conductive film such as an Al film. Bonding wires each made of a metal such as Au are brought into contact with the insulating film and ultrasonic bonding is carried out. In bonding, metal such as Au constituting the bonding wires penetrates part of the insulating film for the electrical connection of the wires and the pads.

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, in a semiconductor device, a material mainly composed of aluminum (Al) (A
1, Al-Cu, Al-Si-Cu, etc.) and copper (C
u) etc. are often used. In such a semiconductor device, a bonding pad for electrical connection with the outside is formed by forming an opening in an insulating film formed on the wiring metal and exposing a part of the wiring metal. It In such a state where the bonding pad is formed, that is, in the state where the bonding pad surface is exposed, the pad surface reacts relatively easily with moisture in the air at room temperature,
It will be altered. Such deterioration of the pad surface may occur in about 2 weeks in a place where temperature and humidity are not controlled.

When the surface of the bonding pad is altered in this way, in the subsequent bonding step,
When the bonding pad and an external lead such as a lead frame are connected by a bonding wire, the eutectic of the metal such as aluminum forming the bonding pad and the bonding wire such as Au is obstructed, and the bonding yield is lowered. There's a problem.

Therefore, in the manufacture of semiconductor devices,
Generally, in order to minimize the deterioration of the bonding pad surface, after the previous process is completed (after the bonding pad formation process), it should be stored in a controlled temperature / humidity atmosphere or sealed with dry air. , Prevents the formation of reaction products.

Further, after the storage as described above, the process moves to a subsequent process, and the metal wire is bonded to the bonding pad in the bonding process. After the bonding process, a portion where the bonding wire is exposed without being covered with the metal wire is exposed. There is also a problem that alteration, corrosion, etc. occur and various characteristics of the semiconductor device are deteriorated.
