Description

本発明は、発熱素子形成領域と回路形成領域を有してなる半導体集積回路装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a semiconductor integrated circuit device having a heating element formation region and a circuit formation region.

発熱素子形成領域を有してなる半導体集積回路装置(IC、Integrated Circuit)が、例えば、特開2004−22651号公報(特許文献1)、特開2006−5325号公報(特許文献2)に開示されている。   Semiconductor integrated circuit devices (ICs) having a heating element forming region are disclosed in, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Nos. 2004-22651 (Patent Document 1) and 2006-5325 (Patent Document 2). Has been.

図10は、特許文献2に開示された半導体集積回路装置を示す図で、図10(a)はワイヤボンディングを用いたパワー複合集積型半導体装置H1の実装形態を示す模式的な上面図であり、図10(b)はパワー複合集積型半導体装置H1の模式的な断面構造を示す図である。   FIG. 10 is a diagram showing the semiconductor integrated circuit device disclosed in Patent Document 2, and FIG. 10A is a schematic top view showing a mounting form of the power composite integrated semiconductor device H1 using wire bonding. FIG. 10B is a diagram showing a schematic cross-sectional structure of the power composite integrated semiconductor device H1.

パワー複合集積型半導体装置H1では、図10(a)に示すように、一つの半導体チップに、二点鎖線で囲ったパワー素子部2と破線で囲った制御回路部3が形成されている。図10(b)に示すように、パワー複合集積型半導体装置H1では、パワー素子部2の集電電極D1,D2に厚い銅電極8を用いることにより、オン抵抗低減のために必要な配線抵抗の低減が図られている。また、銅電極8に対してワイヤボンディング接合性が確保されると共に、銅の拡散および銅のコロージョンに起因する高温で経時劣化を抑止する構造となっている。さらに、パワー素子部2においては直接集電電極D1,D2に、制御回路部3においては制御回路部3上に形成したボンディングパッドP1にボンディング接続できる構造となっている。これによって、従来必要とされた素子周辺部のパッド領域を削減して省面積化されると共に、製造経費が低減されている。   In the power composite integrated semiconductor device H1, as shown in FIG. 10A, a power element portion 2 surrounded by a two-dot chain line and a control circuit portion 3 surrounded by a broken line are formed on one semiconductor chip. As shown in FIG. 10B, in the power composite integrated semiconductor device H1, by using the thick copper electrode 8 for the current collecting electrodes D1 and D2 of the power element portion 2, wiring resistance necessary for reducing the on-resistance is obtained. Is reduced. In addition, wire bonding bondability with the copper electrode 8 is ensured, and deterioration with time is suppressed at a high temperature due to copper diffusion and copper corrosion. Further, the power element unit 2 can be directly connected to the current collecting electrodes D1 and D2 and the control circuit unit 3 can be bonded to a bonding pad P1 formed on the control circuit unit 3. As a result, the pad area in the peripheral portion of the element, which has been conventionally required, is reduced, and the manufacturing cost is reduced.

図11は、発熱素子形成領域と回路形成領域を有してなる従来の半導体集積回路装置を一般化して示した図で、半導体集積回路装置90の模式的な上面図である。また、図12は、半導体集積回路装置が形成された半導体チップのワイヤボンディングによる実装状態を示す図で、図12(a),(b)は、それぞれ、半導体チップをヒートシンク上とリードフレームプレート上に搭載した場合の模式的な断面図である。   FIG. 11 is a generalized view of a conventional semiconductor integrated circuit device having a heating element forming region and a circuit forming region, and is a schematic top view of the semiconductor integrated circuit device 90. FIG. 12 is a diagram showing a mounting state of the semiconductor chip on which the semiconductor integrated circuit device is formed by wire bonding. FIGS. 12A and 12B show the semiconductor chip on the heat sink and the lead frame plate, respectively. It is typical sectional drawing at the time of mounting in.

図11に示す半導体集積回路装置90は、発熱素子形成領域20a,20bと回路形成領域30とを有している。図11の半導体集積回路装置90における回路形成領域30は、能動素子による回路が形成された領域であり、図10のパワー複合集積型半導体装置H1における制御回路部3に相当する。図11の半導体集積回路装置90における発熱素子形成領域20a,20bは、周辺の回路形成領域30における前記能動素子の発熱量に較べて大きな発熱量のパワー能動素子が形成された領域であり、図10のパワー複合集積型半導体装置H1におけるパワー素子部2に相当する。   A semiconductor integrated circuit device 90 shown in FIG. 11 has heating element formation regions 20 a and 20 b and a circuit formation region 30. A circuit formation region 30 in the semiconductor integrated circuit device 90 of FIG. 11 is a region where a circuit using active elements is formed, and corresponds to the control circuit unit 3 in the power composite integrated semiconductor device H1 of FIG. The heating element formation regions 20a and 20b in the semiconductor integrated circuit device 90 of FIG. 11 are regions in which power active elements having a heat generation amount larger than the heat generation amount of the active elements in the peripheral circuit formation region 30 are formed. This corresponds to the power element portion 2 in the power composite integrated semiconductor device H1 of FIG.

図11の半導体集積回路装置90における発熱素子形成領域20aでは、内部にあるパワー能動素子に連結し、リードフレームピンとワイヤボンディングするための金属層が露出したパッド50が、パワー能動素子の上方に形成されない外部パッドとして、発熱素子形成領域20aの外部に配置されている。これに対して、発熱素子形成領域20bでは、内部にあるパワー能動素子に連結し、リードフレームピンとワイヤボンディングするための金属層が露出したパッド60が、パワー能動素子の上方に形成される素子上パッドとして、発熱素子形成領域20bの内部に配置されている。尚、図11に示すように、外部パッド50と素子上パッド60は、いずれも、リードフレームピンとのワイヤボンディングを容易にするために、半導体チップの外周近くに配置される。

In the heat generating element forming region 20a in the semiconductor integrated circuit device 90 of FIG. 11, a pad 50 is formed above the power active element, which is connected to the power active element inside and exposes a metal layer for wire bonding to the lead frame pin. An external pad that is not provided is disposed outside the heating element formation region 20a. On the other hand, in the heating element forming region 20b, a pad 60 that is connected to an internal power active element and exposes a metal layer for wire bonding with a lead frame pin is formed on the element formed above the power active element. As a pad, it is arranged inside the heating element formation region 20b. As shown in FIG. 11, both the external pad 50 and the element upper pad 60 are arranged near the outer periphery of the semiconductor chip in order to facilitate wire bonding with the lead frame pins.

図11の半導体集積回路装置90では、発熱素子形成領域20a,20bとその周りの回路形成領域30の間に、熱緩衝領域40a,40bが配置されている。発熱素子形成領域20a,20bにおける発熱は、一般的に、基板、アルミニウム配線、ボンディングワイヤ等を介して、外部に放熱される。しかしながら、発熱素子形成領域20a,20bにおける発熱量が大きい場合には、周りの回路形成領域30も温度上昇し、回路形成領域30の回路動作に不具合を来たす。特に、図12(b)のリードフレームプレート上に半導体チップを搭載する場合には、図12(a)のヒートシンク上に半導体チップを搭載する場合に較べて基板裏面からの放熱がないため、回路形成領域30の回路動作に不具合を来たす確率も高くなる。図11の半導体集積回路装置90における熱緩衝領域40a,40bは、熱の影響を受け難い受動素子のみが形成された領域、あるいは受動素子も形成されていない配線のみが形成された領域で、この熱緩衝領域40a,40bを配置することにより、発熱素子形成領域20a,20bから回路形成領域30への熱の影響を抑制することができる。   In the semiconductor integrated circuit device 90 of FIG. 11, thermal buffer regions 40a and 40b are disposed between the heating element forming regions 20a and 20b and the circuit forming region 30 around them. The heat generated in the heat generating element forming regions 20a and 20b is generally radiated to the outside through a substrate, an aluminum wiring, a bonding wire, and the like. However, when the amount of heat generated in the heating element formation regions 20a and 20b is large, the temperature of the surrounding circuit formation region 30 also rises, causing a problem in the circuit operation of the circuit formation region 30. In particular, when a semiconductor chip is mounted on the lead frame plate of FIG. 12B, there is no heat dissipation from the back surface of the substrate as compared with the case of mounting a semiconductor chip on the heat sink of FIG. The probability that the circuit operation in the formation region 30 will malfunction is also increased. The thermal buffer regions 40a and 40b in the semiconductor integrated circuit device 90 of FIG. 11 are regions where only passive elements that are not easily affected by heat are formed, or regions where only wirings where no passive elements are formed are formed. By disposing the heat buffer regions 40a and 40b, the influence of heat from the heating element forming regions 20a and 20b to the circuit forming region 30 can be suppressed.

一方、図11のように、発熱素子形成領域20a,20bと回路形成領域30の間に熱緩衝領域40a,40bを配置する場合には、当然にチップ面積が増大してしまう。図10(a)のパワー複合集積型半導体装置H1には熱緩衝領域が示されていないが、パワー素子部2の発熱量が大きい場合には、熱緩衝領域が必要である。図11の半導体集積回路装置90に示すように、素子上パッド60を有する発熱素子形成領域20bは、外部パッド50を有する発熱素子形成領域20aに較べて放熱性が良い。このため、発熱素子形成領域20bの周りに配置する熱緩衝領域40bの占有面積は、図11に示すように、発熱素子形成領域20aの周りに配置する熱緩衝領域40aの占有面積に較べて小さくて済む。また、発熱素子形成領域20bにおける発熱量が小さい場合には、熱緩衝領域40bを配置しなくて済む場合もある。しかしながら、発熱素子形成領域と回路形成領域を有してなる半導体集積回路装置にあっては、発熱素子形成領域が素子上パッドを有する発熱素子形成領域であっても、一般的には熱緩衝領域を配置する必要があり、これに伴ってチップ面積が増大してしまう。   On the other hand, when the heat buffer regions 40a and 40b are disposed between the heat generating element forming regions 20a and 20b and the circuit forming region 30 as shown in FIG. 11, the chip area naturally increases. Although the heat buffer region is not shown in the power composite integrated semiconductor device H1 in FIG. 10A, the heat buffer region is necessary when the heat generation amount of the power element unit 2 is large. As shown in the semiconductor integrated circuit device 90 of FIG. 11, the heat generating element forming region 20 b having the upper pad 60 has better heat dissipation than the heat generating element forming region 20 a having the external pad 50. For this reason, as shown in FIG. 11, the occupation area of the thermal buffer region 40b arranged around the heating element formation region 20b is smaller than the occupation area of the thermal buffer region 40a arranged around the heating element formation region 20a. I'll do it. Further, when the heat generation amount in the heat generating element forming region 20b is small, the heat buffering region 40b may not be arranged. However, in a semiconductor integrated circuit device having a heating element formation region and a circuit formation region, even if the heating element formation region is a heating element formation region having a pad on the element, generally a heat buffer region And the chip area increases accordingly.

そこで本発明は、発熱素子形成領域と回路形成領域を有してなる半導体集積回路装置であって、熱緩衝領域を配置することなく発熱素子形成領域から回路形成領域への熱の影響を抑制することができ、チップ面積を有効活用した小型の半導体集積回路装置を提供することを目的としている。   Accordingly, the present invention is a semiconductor integrated circuit device having a heating element formation region and a circuit formation region, and suppresses the influence of heat from the heating element formation region to the circuit formation region without disposing a thermal buffer region. An object of the present invention is to provide a small-sized semiconductor integrated circuit device that can effectively use the chip area.

請求項1に記載の半導体集積回路装置は、一つの半導体チップに、能動素子による回路が形成された領域である回路形成領域と、周辺の前記回路形成領域における前記能動素子の発熱量に較べて大きな発熱量のパワー能動素子が形成された領域である発熱素子形成領域とを有してなる半導体集積回路装置であって、前記発熱素子形成領域に隣接して、前記回路形成領域が配置されてなり、金属層が露出した端子で、前記能動素子または前記パワー能動素子の上方に形成される素子上パッドが、前記発熱素子形成領域と前記回路形成領域の境界に沿って当該境界を取り囲むようにして、発熱素子形成領域および/または回路形成領域内に複数個配置されてなることを特徴としている。   According to another aspect of the semiconductor integrated circuit device of the present invention, the heat generation amount of the active element in the circuit formation region, which is a region where a circuit using active elements is formed on one semiconductor chip, and the peripheral circuit formation region is compared. A semiconductor integrated circuit device having a heat generating element forming region, which is a region where a power active element having a large heat generation amount is formed, wherein the circuit forming region is disposed adjacent to the heat generating element forming region. And an element pad formed above the active element or the power active element surrounds the boundary along the boundary between the heating element formation region and the circuit formation region. Thus, a plurality of heat generating element formation regions and / or circuit formation regions are arranged.

上記半導体集積回路装置においては、発熱素子形成領域に隣接して回路形成領域が配置されており、熱の影響を受け難い受動素子のみが形成された領域、あるいは受動素子も形成されていない配線のみが形成された領域である熱緩衝領域が、発熱素子形成領域と回路形成領域の間に配置されていない。このため、上記半導体集積回路装置は、熱緩衝領域の配置によるチップ面積の増大を排除した半導体集積回路装置となっている。   In the semiconductor integrated circuit device, a circuit forming region is arranged adjacent to the heat generating element forming region, and only a region where only passive elements that are not easily affected by heat are formed or wirings where no passive elements are also formed are provided. The heat buffering region, which is a region where is formed, is not disposed between the heating element forming region and the circuit forming region. Therefore, the semiconductor integrated circuit device is a semiconductor integrated circuit device in which an increase in chip area due to the arrangement of the thermal buffer region is eliminated.

一方、上記半導体集積回路装置においては、発熱素子形成領域と回路形成領域の間に熱緩衝領域を配置する替りに、素子上パッドが、発熱素子形成領域と回路形成領域の境界に沿って当該境界を取り囲むようにして、発熱素子形成領域および/または回路形成領域内に複数個配置されている。素子上パッドは、ワイヤボンディング等に利用される金属層が露出した端子で、能動素子またはパワー能動素子の上方に形成されるパッドである。この素子上パッドは、金属層が露出しているため、放熱に利用することができる。従って、この素子上パッドを発熱素子形成領域と回路形成領域の境界に沿って当該境界を取り囲むようにして、発熱素子形成領域および/または回路形成領域内に複数個配置することで、発熱素子形成領域から回路形成領域への熱の伝達を効率的に抑制することができる。   On the other hand, in the semiconductor integrated circuit device, instead of disposing the thermal buffer region between the heat generating element forming region and the circuit forming region, the element upper pad extends along the boundary between the heat generating element forming region and the circuit forming region. Are arranged in the heat generating element formation region and / or the circuit formation region. The element upper pad is a terminal exposed from a metal layer used for wire bonding or the like, and is a pad formed above the active element or the power active element. The pad on the element can be used for heat dissipation because the metal layer is exposed. Accordingly, a plurality of pads on the element are arranged in the heating element formation region and / or the circuit formation region so as to surround the boundary between the heating element formation region and the circuit formation region, thereby forming the heating element. Heat transfer from the region to the circuit formation region can be efficiently suppressed.

以上のようにして、上記半導体集積回路装置は、発熱素子形成領域と回路形成領域を有してなる半導体集積回路装置であって、熱緩衝領域を配置することなく発熱素子形成領域から回路形成領域への熱の影響を抑制することができ、熱緩衝領域の配置によるチップ面積の増大を排除して、チップ面積を有効活用した小型の半導体集積回路装置となっている。   As described above, the semiconductor integrated circuit device is a semiconductor integrated circuit device having a heat generating element forming region and a circuit forming region, and the circuit forming region is changed from the heat generating element forming region without disposing the heat buffer region. The effect of heat on the surface of the semiconductor integrated circuit device can be suppressed, and an increase in the chip area due to the arrangement of the thermal buffer region is eliminated, and a small semiconductor integrated circuit device that effectively uses the chip area is obtained.

In the semiconductor integrated circuit device 100 of FIG. 3, a plurality of element pads 61w, 61o, 62w, 62o are arranged in the heating element formation regions 21a to 21c and the circuit formation region 31 so as to surround the boundary. Yes.

図1〜図3の半導体集積回路装置100〜102における素子上パッド61w,61o,62w,62oは、金属層が露出した端子で、回路形成領域31における前記能動素子または発熱素子形成領域21a〜21cにおける前記パワー能動素子の上方に形成されている。尚、図1〜図3の半導体集積回路装置100〜102においては、素子上パッド61w,61o,62w,62oのうち、リードフレームピン(他の端子)と接続されている接続パッドを英字wの付いた符号61w,62wとし、他の端子と接続されていない開放パッド(ダミーパッド)を英字oの付いた符号61o,62oとして識別している。また、素子上パッド61w,61o,62w,62oのうち、発熱素子形成領域21a〜21c内に配置される素子上パッドを数字61の付いた符号61w,61oとし、回路形成領域31内に配置される素子上パッドを数字62の付いた符号62w,62oとして識別している。   In the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 100 to 102 of FIGS. 1 to 3, the element pads 61w, 61o, 62w, and 62o are terminals with exposed metal layers, and the active elements or heating element formation regions 21a to 21c in the circuit formation region 31. Is formed above the power active element. 1 to 3, the connection pads connected to the lead frame pins (other terminals) among the element pads 61w, 61o, 62w, 62o are represented by the letter w.

The element upper pads are identified as reference numerals 62w and 62o with numerals 62.

図1〜図3に示す半導体集積回路装置100〜102は、図11に示した半導体集積回路装置90と異なり、いずれも、発熱素子形成領域21a〜21cに隣接して回路形成領域31が配置されている。従って、熱の影響を受け難い受動素子のみが形成された領域、あるいは受動素子も形成されていない配線のみが形成された領域である図11に示した熱緩衝領域40a,40bが、図1〜図3の半導体集積回路装置100〜102においては、発熱素子形成領域21a〜21cと回路形成領域31の間に配置されていない。このため、図1〜図3の半導体集積回路装置100〜102は、図11の熱緩衝領域40a,40bの配置によるチップ面積の増大を排除した半導体集積回路装置となっている。   The semiconductor integrated circuit devices 100 to 102 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 are different from the semiconductor integrated circuit device 90 shown in FIG. 11 in that the circuit forming region 31 is arranged adjacent to the heating element forming regions 21a to 21c. ing. Therefore, the heat buffer regions 40a and 40b shown in FIG. 11 which are regions where only passive elements that are hardly affected by heat are formed, or regions where only wirings where no passive elements are formed are formed are shown in FIGS. In the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 100 to 102 of FIG. 3, they are not arranged between the heat generating element forming regions 21 a to 21 c and the circuit forming region 31. Therefore, the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 100 to 102 in FIGS. 1 to 3 are semiconductor integrated circuit devices in which an increase in chip area due to the arrangement of the thermal buffer regions 40a and 40b in FIG. 11 is eliminated.

一方、図1〜図3の半導体集積回路装置100〜102においては、発熱素子形成領域21a〜21cと回路形成領域31の間に図11の熱緩衝領域40a,40bを配置する替りに、素子上パッド61w,61o,62w,62oが、発熱素子形成領域21a〜21cと回路形成領域31の境界に沿って当該境界を取り囲むようにして、複数個配置されている。素子上パッド61w,61o,62w,62oは、前述したようにワイヤボンディング等に利用される金属層が露出した端子で、能動素子またはパワー能動素子の上方に形成されるパッドである。この素子上パッド61w,61o,62w,62oは、金属層が露出しているため、放熱に利用することができる。従って、この素子上パッド61w,61o,62w,62oを発熱素子形成領域21a〜21cと回路形成領域31の境界に沿って当該境界を取り囲むようにして、発熱素子形成領域21a〜21cと回路形成領域31の少なくとも一つの領域内に複数個配置することで、発熱素子形成領域21a〜21cから回路形成領域31への熱の伝達を効率的に抑制することができる。   On the other hand, in the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 100 to 102 of FIGS. 1 to 3, instead of disposing the heat buffer regions 40 a and 40 b of FIG. 11 between the heating element forming regions 21 a to 21 c and the circuit forming region 31, A plurality of pads 61w, 61o, 62w, and 62o are arranged along the boundary between the heat generating element forming regions 21a to 21c and the circuit forming region 31 so as to surround the boundary. The element upper pads 61w, 61o, 62w, and 62o are terminals exposed from the metal layer used for wire bonding or the like as described above, and are pads formed above the active element or the power active element. The element upper pads 61w, 61o, 62w, and 62o can be used for heat dissipation because the metal layer is exposed. Accordingly, the element pads 61w, 61o, 62w, and 62o are surrounded by the heat generating element forming regions 21a to 21c and the circuit forming region 31 so as to surround the boundary. By disposing a plurality in the at least one region 31, heat transfer from the heating element formation regions 21 a to 21 c to the circuit formation region 31 can be efficiently suppressed.

以上のようにして、図1〜図3に示す半導体集積回路装置100〜102は、いずれも、発熱素子形成領域21a〜21cと回路形成領域31を有してなる半導体集積回路装置であって、熱緩衝領域を配置することなく発熱素子形成領域21a〜21cから回路形成領域31への熱の影響を抑制することができ、熱緩衝領域の配置によるチップ面積の増大を排除して、チップ面積を有効活用した小型の半導体集積回路装置となっている。   As described above, each of the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 100 to 102 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 is a semiconductor integrated circuit device having the heating element forming regions 21 a to 21 c and the circuit forming region 31. It is possible to suppress the influence of heat from the heating element formation regions 21a to 21c to the circuit formation region 31 without disposing the heat buffer region, and to eliminate the increase in chip area due to the disposition of the heat buffer region. It is a small semiconductor integrated circuit device that is effectively utilized.

図4と図5は、別の半導体集積回路装置の例で、それぞれ、半導体集積回路装置103,104の模式的な上面図である。尚、図4と図5に示す半導体集積回路装置103,104において、図1〜図3に示した半導体集積回路装置100〜102と同様の部分については、同じ符号を付した。   FIGS. 4 and 5 are schematic top views of the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 103 and 104, respectively, as other examples of the semiconductor integrated circuit device. In the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 103 and 104 shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the same reference numerals are given to the same parts as those of the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 100 to 102 shown in FIGS.

図4と図5に示す半導体集積回路装置103,104は、それぞれ、図1と図2に示した半導体集積回路装置100,101に対して、発熱素子形成領域21a〜21c内に、素子上パッド61oを追加配置している。これによって、図4と図5の半導体集積回路装置103,104においては、素子上パッド61w,61oが、発熱素子形成領域21a〜21c内において、回路形成領域31との境界付近だけでなく、回路形成領域31との境界から中央部に至る全面に渡って配置されている。   The semiconductor integrated circuit devices 103 and 104 shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 are, in comparison with the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 100 and 101 shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, respectively, in the heating element forming regions 21a to 21c. 61o is additionally arranged. Accordingly, in the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 103 and 104 of FIGS. 4 and 5, the element pads 61w and 61o are not only in the vicinity of the boundary with the circuit formation region 31 in the heating element formation regions 21a to 21c, but also in the circuit. It is arranged over the entire surface from the boundary with the formation region 31 to the central portion.

前述したように、素子上パッド61w,61o,62w,62oは、放熱に利用できる。このため、図1〜図3に示した半導体集積回路装置100〜102のように素子上パッド61w,61o,62w,62oを発熱素子形成領域21a〜21cと回路形成領域31の境界に配置するだけでなく、図4と図5の半導体集積回路装置103,104のように、発熱素子形成領域21a〜21c内において、回路形成領域31との境界から中央部に至る全面に渡って配置することで、発熱素子形成領域21a〜21c内で発生する熱を効率的に放熱することができる。尚、図3に示した半導体集積回路装置102についても、発熱素子形成領域21a〜21c内において、素子上パッド61w,61oを回路形成領域31との境界から中央部に至る全面に渡って配置することで、同様の効果が得られることは言うまでもない。   As described above, the element pads 61w, 61o, 62w, and 62o can be used for heat dissipation. Therefore, as in the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 100 to 102 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the element pads 61 w, 61 o, 62 w, and 62 o are only arranged at the boundaries between the heating element formation regions 21 a to 21 c and the circuit formation region 31. Instead, as in the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 103 and 104 of FIGS. 4 and 5, the heat generating element formation regions 21 a to 21 c are arranged over the entire surface from the boundary with the circuit formation region 31 to the central portion. The heat generated in the heating element forming regions 21a to 21c can be efficiently radiated. In the semiconductor integrated circuit device 102 shown in FIG. 3, the element pads 61w and 61o are arranged over the entire surface from the boundary with the circuit formation region 31 to the central portion in the heating element formation regions 21a to 21c. Needless to say, the same effect can be obtained.

前述したように、上記した半導体集積回路装置100〜104においては、発熱素子形成領域21a〜21cおよび/または回路形成領域31内に複数個配置されている素子上パッドのうち、全ての素子上パッドを他の端子と接続される接続パッド61w,62wとする必要はなく、少なくとも1個の素子上パッドが、他の端子と接続されない開放パッド61o,62oであってよい。すなわち、上記半導体集積回路装置100〜104においては、他の端子との接続に利用する素子上パッド61w,62wだけでなく、素子上パッドを他の端子と接続されない開放パッド(ダミーパッド)61o,62oとして、少なくとも1個以上、好ましくは多数個配置して、これらの開放パッド61o,62oを放熱に利用する。これによって、上記半導体集積回路装置100〜104においては、発熱素子形成領域21a〜21cから回路形成領域31への熱の伝達を効率的に抑制することができる。   As described above, in the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 100 to 104 described above, all of the element upper pads among the element upper pads arranged in the heat generating element formation regions 21a to 21c and / or the circuit formation region 31 are used. Is not required to be the connection pads 61w and 62w connected to the other terminals, and at least one on-element pad may be the open pads 61o and 62o not connected to the other terminals. That is, in the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 100 to 104, not only the element pads 61w and 62w used for connection to other terminals, but also the open pads (dummy pads) 61o that do not connect the element pads to other terminals. As 62o, at least one or more, preferably many, are arranged, and these open pads 61o, 62o are used for heat dissipation. Thus, in the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 100 to 104, heat transfer from the heating element forming regions 21a to 21c to the circuit forming region 31 can be efficiently suppressed.

また、上記半導体集積回路装置100〜104においては、素子上パッド61w,61o,62w,62oが、格子縞の格子点に配置されてなることが好ましい。これにより、素子上パッド61w,61o,62w,62oが所定の方向に等間隔で配置されることとなり、素子上パッド61w,62wへのワイヤボンディングが容易になる。   In the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 100 to 104, the element pads 61w, 61o, 62w, and 62o are preferably arranged at lattice points of lattice stripes. Thereby, the element pads 61w, 61o, 62w, 62o are arranged at equal intervals in a predetermined direction, and wire bonding to the element pads 61w, 62w is facilitated.

図6〜図8は、別の半導体集積回路装置の例で、それぞれ、半導体集積回路装置105〜107の模式的な上面図である。尚、図6〜図8の半導体集積回路装置105〜107においても、上記した半導体集積回路装置100〜104と同様の部分については、同じ符号を付した。   6 to 8 are schematic top views of the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 105 to 107, respectively, as other examples of the semiconductor integrated circuit device. In addition, in the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 105 to 107 of FIGS. 6 to 8, the same reference numerals are given to the same parts as those of the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 100 to 104 described above.

Are connected to each other. In the semiconductor integrated circuit device 106 shown in FIG. 7, as can be seen from the semiconductor integrated circuit device 101 shown in FIG. 2, the open pads 62 o are connected to each other by an integral wiring pattern 72 in the circuit formation region 31. ing. Further, in the semiconductor integrated circuit device 107 shown in FIG. 8, the open pads 61o and 62o are connected to each other by the integrated wiring patterns 71 and 72 in the heating element forming regions 21a to 21c and the circuit forming region 31. In the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 105 to 107 shown in FIGS. 6 to 8, the heating element forming regions 21 a to 21 c are formed by the integrated wiring patterns 71 and 72 in the heating element forming regions 21 a to 21 c and / or the circuit forming region 31. The heat generated inside and / or the heat transmitted to the circuit formation region 31 can be integrated by the integrated wiring patterns 71 and 72 and efficiently radiated from the open pads 61o and 62o. In addition, in the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 105 to 107 shown in FIGS. 6 to 8, all the open pads 61o in the heating element formation regions 21a to 21c are connected by the wiring pattern 71, and all in the circuit formation region 31 are connected. The open pads 62 o are connected by the wiring pattern 72. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and wiring patterns 71 and 72 that connect two or more open pads 61o and 62o may be used.

図9は、別の半導体集積回路装置108の模式的な上面図である。尚、図9の半導体集積回路装置108においても、上記した半導体集積回路装置100〜107と同様の部分については、同じ符号を付した。   FIG. 9 is a schematic top view of another semiconductor integrated circuit device 108. In the semiconductor integrated circuit device 108 of FIG. 9, the same parts as those of the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 100 to 107 described above are denoted by the same reference numerals.

図9の半導体集積回路装置108においては、図5に示した半導体集積回路装置104と比較してわかるように、符号61od,62odで示した開放パッドに、ワイヤの他端が他の端子に接続されない他端開放ワイヤボンディングが施されている。これによれば、半導体チップ表面に露出した金属層だけでなく、当該開放パッド61od,62odにダミーでボンディングされた他端が開放(他の端子に接続されていない)状態にあるワイヤからも放熱することができる。尚、上記した他の半導体集積回路装置100〜103,105〜107についても、任意の開放パッド61o,62oに他端開放ワイヤボンディングを施すことで、同様に放熱性が高められることは言うまでもない。   In the semiconductor integrated circuit device 108 of FIG. 9, as can be seen in comparison with the semiconductor integrated circuit device 104 shown in FIG. 5, the other end of the wire is connected to the open pad indicated by reference numerals 61 od and 62 od. The other end open wire bonding is applied. According to this, heat is radiated not only from the metal layer exposed on the surface of the semiconductor chip but also from the wire in which the other end bonded to the open pads 61od and 62od by a dummy is open (not connected to other terminals). can do. Needless to say, the other semiconductor integrated circuit devices 100 to 103 and 105 to 107 are also similarly improved in heat dissipation by subjecting arbitrary open pads 61o and 62o to open wire bonding at the other end.

以上に示したように、上記した半導体集積回路装置100〜108は、いずれも、発熱素子形成領域21a〜21cと回路形成領域31を有してなる半導体集積回路装置であって、熱緩衝領域を配置することなく発熱素子形成領域21a〜21cから回路形成領域31への熱の影響を抑制することができ、チップ面積を有効活用した小型の半導体集積回路装置となっている。   As described above, each of the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 100 to 108 described above is a semiconductor integrated circuit device including the heat generating element forming regions 21a to 21c and the circuit forming region 31, and includes a heat buffer region. It is possible to suppress the influence of heat from the heating element formation regions 21a to 21c to the circuit formation region 31 without arranging them, and the semiconductor integrated circuit device is a small-sized semiconductor device that effectively utilizes the chip area.

従って、上記した半導体集積回路装置100〜108は、当該半導体装置が形成される半導体チップを、リードフレームプレート上に搭載する場合に好適である。上記半導体集積回路装置100〜108においては、素子上パッド61w,61o,61od,62w,62o,62odによって半導体チップの主面側からの放熱が改善されるため、基板裏面側からの放熱を期待できない、半導体チップをリードフレームプレート上に搭載する場合に特に適している。   Therefore, the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 100 to 108 described above are suitable for mounting a semiconductor chip on which the semiconductor device is formed on a lead frame plate. In the semiconductor integrated circuit devices 100 to 108, since the heat radiation from the main surface side of the semiconductor chip is improved by the element pads 61w, 61o, 61od, 62w, 62o, and 62od, the heat radiation from the back surface side of the substrate cannot be expected. Particularly suitable for mounting a semiconductor chip on a lead frame plate.
